it's really funny to be federated with an instance that we've banned the admins of and I want to maintain the bit for as long as possible because they're the only abject toxic actors that there's an actual conundrum dealing with on the site, and they're dealt with, so unless they pull some bullshit with socks/targetted fuckery through some abuse of federation which would get them seen as a bad actor not just on hexbear, it's not a problem. No matter what, the outcome is funny and/or pathetic.
also love that part of the tide shift on this is people realizing how funny the current situation is
