I will also place my support for defederation of Hexbear.

Our rule #4 clearly states: (emphasis mine)

No harassment, dogpiling or doxxing of other users.

Every one of you hexbear users AND users of remote instances who are here harrassing and arguing with OP about their views is doing just that. Dogpiling.

In a meta thread that hasn’t much place. Instead of trying to discredit the user proposing the defederation; maybe try proving you folks can play by our rules. Yes; Jonah does permit a variety of viewpoints. If you can stay within our ruleset.

as always I leave it up to you to review their behavior(s) @jonah and decide if defederation is an appropriate action. But the action of the several hexbear users who have replied before this comment have not inspired my faith in them.
