Edit: mods removed the comment? Why? I don’t think the guy was wrong to be concerned about sexual content in books for children and I would have liked my question answered.

It’s probably the mods on your instance (lemmy.ca) that removed the comment. I can still see it.

I also love his videos!

Please don’t use serif fonts for UI elements. Imagine the buttons on your file manager being Times New Roman. (eww.) I think what you’re looking for is a monospaced font that’s designed to distinguish O/0, I/1/l, etc.

Plug for one of my favorite fonts: https://www.jetbrains.com/lp/mono/

What was particularly sad this time was that the mods here, instead of deleting the abusive comments which I reported several times, decided instead to remove the whole post altogether while those comments themselves were never touched. So, not only the reporting option became pointless, but it also removed (in my opinion) a nice conversation on the topic. In the mod log they wrote ‘reason: Troll bait’ for why the post was removed, but I find…let’s say very coincidental that every time a discussion about Hexbear (which might start very calmly at first) has then to be locked or deleted because of the trolling.

I am almost certain that the post was removed by one of the admins on Hexbear. See their modlog: https://hexbear.net/modlog?page=1&userId=172774. They removed almost all comments made by @comr@hexbear.net, banned him, and removed the post.

I think maybe we should relax the rule for CCP, Russian, Stalinism, etc. apologia for this thread? I don’t really see the purpose of this thread if those viewpoints aren’t allowed here.

Thankfully, OP is from an instance that has not federated with Hexbear. Hexbear users won’t be able to see this post.

Wow, they actually were talking about me. That admin is really arrogant.

Good. Actually I was also banned for saying that Xi the Pooh isn’t racist.

They do. See https://lemmygrad.ml and see how almost every post has some downvotes. IMO this does make the posting culture there better.

Can we not assume that every question asked on Lemmy is hostile? I don’t see what’s wrong with that comment. Besides, I don’t think @goat@sh.itjust.works is pro-hexbear anyway.

Why does this comment have 10 downvotes? Seems like a genuine, well-intentioned question to me.

So eloquently and precisely did you sum up my experience with them that I am starting to suspect you are me.

Heck I think Lemmygrad is more tolerable than Hexbear, by a lot.

Sh.itjust.works has already defederated from Hexbear? That quick? No announcement whatsoever?

Btw, lemm.ee is federated with Hexbear.

Agreed.

My mom has loads of these Le Creuset pots.

Pro Russia and pro China.

Though this is not a description of what hexbear is, you probably will be interested in my post where I stated why I wanted to defederate from hexbear: https://lemm.ee/post/5751850 (shameless self-plug, I know)

Yeah, the Chinese government is totally very democratic and is receptive to the criticism of its citizens! They never censor words and topics they don’t like on their social media platforms!
