Ok. If I were forced to choose between hexbear.net and reddit.world, I wouldn’t choose .world. But you do you.

Because .world’s admins pre-emptively defederated from Hexbear as a “last resort” (even though, by definition, it was their “first resort”).

About a year ago: Lemmy.world Hexbear Statement

Yesterday, we received information about the planned federation by Hexbear. The announcement thread can be found here: https://www.hexbear.net/post/280770.

Defederation should only be considered as a last resort. However, based on their comments and behavior, no positive outcomes can be expected.
