I just saw my first Hexbear post, and I am not used to seeing this level of stupid. I don’t want to see any more of it.

    I’m still not sure I understand the benefits of

    • hating an entire country over hating one of its citizens
    • hating an entire instance instead of hating one of its communities (hating a community or a specific user does make complete sense tho)

      Those two aren’t in any way comparable. You don’t choose what country you’re born in. You DO choose which instance to be a part of.

        Sorry. I meant that the community I want to follow didn’t choose the idiot vandals who joined their instance and which caused my home instance to shut off access to their entire instance.

        An instance-wide block of an entire other instance feels like cutting out your eyes instead of closing the curtains to me.
