WTF is happening on Hexbear? (lemmygrad.ml)

Hexbear's new head of operations just dropped, and their way of dealing with the fallout of their last struggle session is to hand bans out like candy to their concerned and disillusioned users while throwing out "epic" quips like insecure teenagers along the way coupled with their communication (and seemingly contempt) towards their own userbase which isn't helping their allegations at all and the revelations that were learned about Hexbear's moderators and admins from their most recent struggle session.

The last few days have honestly shaken my faith in Hexbear and their team and I hope the mods and admins at Lemmygrad are monitoring the situation closely.

Hard agree. The fact that its fun is what I've always liked best about hexbear. It's easy to find serious stuff. Its good to have a left space to laugh about it

I recently made a post asking why people joined us and like most of them said they stayed because of the shitpost vibes. Making us into a serious only space would be a very, very bad idea if we want to keep being Hexbear.

To reiterate what I said in one of the stickied threads, if any mod has a problem with a core component of Hexbear culture and aesthetic, the problem isn't with Hexbear. That mod should just go join another instance.
