Without providing that context your critique is “…unhelpful at best”
Edit: to be clear, Hexbear is a large and active instance, so if you value their content (as I do) other instances being de-federated can be just as much, if not more, a mark against those instances. Hence why it matters who deems them controversial and why.
I don’t personally know who they are federated with, but as someone who’s only used Lemmy.ML, I can interact with their instance and I can interact with many (if not most, idk) other instances (.World, .Zip, Lemmygrad, DBzer0, etc). So if they are de-federated with those instances and you want to see both Hexbear and them, maybe come to Lemmy.ml.
Side note: is there a way to track de-federations aside from just searching for communities hosted there from within your instance?
Those three instances are a lot more controversial than most, and I’m not gonna argue with you if you’re gonna pretend to not know that.
Controversial in the view of liberals and conservatives.
“My specific bias alone is justified in a way that conveniently doesn’t even bear explaining.”
“Controversial” in that Marxists tend to support them, and those opposed to Marxism don’t. It’s as simple as that, really.
Controversial amongst whom and for what reasons?
