hexbear major lore posts?
there's a lot of random funny hexbear lore out there, like rock stacking, but that's not what I'm asking about. I'm more asking about the really huge stuff, like the transphobe purging or the r/vcj onboarding that apparently almost ended the site. has anyone done any good writeups on those? really hoping for one about the r/vcj onboarding but I'll take any i can get my hands on

like on hexbear or on reddit?
I was one of the mods Reddit and when the admins threatened us we came over to Hexbear/Chapochat which we were already using after they banned CTH so we tried to get the c/vegan community going. The user communities clashed and everyone got banned or moved on. Mods don't really meaningfully lead communities though so I just tried to keep spam off and post stuff, some of the more aggressive users and posts created a culture clash. Aggressive vs Aggressive.
I stayed with the reddit moderator group until some time last year when most of them moved on by then and I decided to stop spending time on doing free labor for Reddit's IPO. I moved the small subreddit for a discord community called r/veganhomecooks to lemmy.world/c/veganhomecooks. After a while I started to understand what the lemmy.world admins were really trying to do and recalled the clash with the Hexbear's so I created my own Lemmy server mostly to host https://vegantheoryclub.org/c/veganhomecooks.
Now that the lemmy federation exists it solves all the problems I had trying to use the platform. I think federated coexistence and mutual respect is the best solution for all this, it is easy to respect the Hexbear's but the liberals on lemmy.world 😬 no thanks. It took me a while to figure out how to actually administrate the server and realized I have to defederate some of the generalist instances for it to be enjoyable. Because I don't really want to be involved with like website politics my friend Arcane Potato is the head admin of the VTC lemmy and we just want to post about gardening, cooking and vegan stuff and hope people like our content.
i'm glad it seems to be working out for yall there then!
