At least on the communities i follow. Every so often I come across a thread where i recognize most of the users there even in the big communities with over 30k members and I haven't even been on lemmy that long.

I thought hexbear was marxist. Oh well i guess I'll stick to seeing the same users

Hexbear is Marxist, yes, and is defederated with sh.itjust.works and lemmy.world.

[-] GrammarPolice@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

Does defederation mean I only can't make any posts or comments to that instance. Because i can still view and seemingly join hexbear communities on my sh.itjust.works alt.

[-] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 hour ago

Interesting, when are the latest posts in those communitues?

[-] GrammarPolice@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

!movies@hexbear.net has a post as early as 2 days ago

[-] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 hour ago

Huh, I haven't seen any sh.itjust.works comments on Hexbear, and sh.itjust.works is an anti-marxist instance as well. Interesting, could be a weird federation thing.

Yeah i probably can't comment. Who knows, I haven't tried, but i can view posts alright
