I don't think hexbear in itself is that bad, i do think its a bad starting point for beginners though.

Honeypot thread - admins take note

I just don't find hexbear as a whole to be that objectionable. They defederated from everyone for a while during their whole DNS debacle, and I missed them! It's a very active instance that posts a lot of news and memes.
And if we're basing this on which instances have more annoying users, well I have a lot more users from discuss.tchncs.de blocked than hexbear. Not to call them out either, but I think it's... intolerant to act like a whole instance is poison because their standards and rules allow for types of people I don't want to interact with. Obviously stuff like CSAM or Nazi shit is a red line, but if some users having objectionable politics is grounds for ostracizing an instance, how has lemmy.world survived this long?

Objectionable politics
"Anybody who's more moderate than a Marxist-Leninist is a liberal and deserves to be shot"
Hexbear is as bad as 4chan, but with tankies instead of alt-right, normalising radical political views
-
99% of online Tankies promote fascist positions, but pretend to be "left" so as to present as more palatable to left-leaning "normies" dissatisfied with the state of democracy.

It's random 🤷

I don't consider this acceptable simply because it happens randomly.

If you have enough energy to convince the devs; (they admin the lemmy.ml and lemmygrad). Than go ahead and try. https://github.com/LemmyNet/joinlemmy-site
From few interactions I had with them it's not worth it and it's better to make more useful features like better moderation than fight politics.

What would your solution be to this intolerable situation for you where leftists are allowed to.. checks notes ..randomly be visible on the internet?
