Comment on Hexbear federation megathread

pythonoob@programming.dev ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

I haven’t said a thing about brigading, so I’m not sure why that’s relevant to me in particular. And I am one user from programming dev, a pretty neutral instance. That’s hardly brigading.

Fwiw that user specifically has been shitflinging a lot and they’re a relatively new account. I suspect they’re either someone from Hexbear that doesn’t want federation to work out, or a third party just trying to upset people.

It wasn’t relevant to you in particular at all, just a weird transference of aggression, as if every user holds the same opinions and inherently knows the nuances of this debate.

  Yeah there does seem to be a lot of various in individual user opinion, which I think is important to take into account with things like defederation. My earlier comment was based on reading through some of the comments on hexbear’s new posting guidelines thread. So I admit, hardly all encompassing.

    Just in case you’re reading this as an attack on you:
    
    as if every user holds the same opinions and inherently knows the nuances of this debate.
    
    I meant that the other user was acting as if you were one of the people accusing us of brigading simply for posting on a non-local instance, when it’s pretty clear you weren’t.

    I understood but thank you for clarifying.
