Recently I was browsing some communities I typically hang out in and I started noticing Hexbear accounts being… well their typical selves.
Which made me check which account I was on because I’ve got a few, and when I noticed I was on my Blahaj account I had to check and it looks like we’re federated again?
Why?
Kbin would be great without them. They really do spoil it for me and for some obscure reason you can’t block anything hexbear. I really can’t understand why we’re federated.
We were defederated from them months ago but for some reason we appear to be federated with them again
There didn’t look to be any announcement or anything in this community here on Blahaj about it so that’s why I made the post
hexbear has a deal with the lemmy developers to prevent users from avoiding their content
Wouldn’t surprise me given the overlap in their… let’s call it thinking. Still, there’s nothing to suggest that e.g. Ernest from kbin is a tankie dipshit, so it’s still weird we also have to deal with it.
Instance blocking, in the absence of people doing their job, needs to arrive last month.
No way lmao, how though?

That’s what I thought for kbin as well. Would explain why you can’t block them. Then again, really? That’s almost too absurd to be true. Can’t imagine Ernest doing that…
You can block an entire domain, but the functionality is currently broken. It will hide entire comment sections from you if you do it.
However, based on recent posts at /m/kbinmeta it sounds like updates should start rolling out before too much longer, and I expect that will eventually be one of the the things that gets fixed.
That is good news indeed.
