    Blåhaj zone defeded early from hexbear before federation was possible. The admin had a change of heart or something before it was turned on. The two biggest trans-supportive instances not being linked would be disappointing. Seems like specifically choosing to fed and turning off a block makes it more likely to not be turned off again as the struggle has been worked out.

        Yeah because we started commie posting on 196, and so they went full “Fuck tankies” mode lmao

        Honestly I’m happy I don’t have to see unironic Vaush fans.

            Ironic since the facts within it came from Hexbear in the first place. It was myself and tronaldo who decided to go full anti-vaush-aktion, making the bots using masterposts that existed on Hexbear as well as enough_vaush_spam then networking out across most of left-reddit to get the bot installed in as many places as possible.

            From lemmy to reddit back to lemmy.

                Unfortunatley it’s a complete mess now. The original masterpost is this one: https://hexbear.net/post/32425?scrollToComments=false

                What you’ll find with this post is that the links in the post are broken, something to do with our old version of the site and switching to the current lemmy one. We used to be on a fork.

                I think the content is still there in the comments section, you’ll just need to scroll to it manually.

                I wouldn’t recommend this though tbh I would recommend hooking up with people over on /r/enough_vaush_spam, particularly the mods, who are the most likely to be still active in this area (and thus up-to-date with newer facts). He probably deserves an updated version with newer stuff. If I had the time or could be bothered I’d probably build things as a timeline now, so people can see that he’s still doing new shit and that all this isn’t “in the past” as his community would like to pretend. If you have the motivation, please do it.

                But yeah, that post is the first match that lit the fire.

        Didn’t know that, used to see lemmygrad on blåhaj and they had a ‘users on a short leash’ policy some places. They don’t even have lemmygrad.com blocked.
