Hexbear is far more likely to have users entering and using our comms, being another large socialist instance, albeit dedicated to left unity rather than Marxism like ourselves. I think there is enough of a culture change that we need to have a pinned post for hexbear users coming here explaining what kind of content/attitudes they might see here/what different rules to follow

There should also be a section dedicated to explaining to lemmygrad users to respect hexbear comm rules and what to expect from their users etc.

I think this would help ease any potential cross site struggle sessions

      When I came over to Lemmy I made an account here and on lemmy.ml. I liked both for different reasons but holy shit has the reddit crap turned lemmy.ml into a liberal shithouse. I kind of hope the libs freak out as well. I liked it over there due to a bit more traffic but now it’s just fucking stale memes and anticomm rhetoric.

        Yeah, there’s been a noticeable change after the latest reddit exodus. Still not nearly as bad as reddit was, but a lot of libs are brigading everything now. I do think we should participate there more actively and push back. If done properly it’ll help deprogram at least some people, and I think it would be valuable to have a neutral space that’s friendly to newbie leftists which lemmy.ml has been up to now.

        The thing with libs is that they can’t actually make a coherent argument of their own, and they just rely on mob tactics to shut down any discussion. Once the mob tactics stop working they just go away. This was basically the whole reason beehaw was defederating. These people just know how to repeat a script and when that stops working they’re lost.
