New account but I’ve been using burner accounts and lurking since the sub got banned. I’ve been seeing all the standard liberal brainworms again for the first time since and everytime it’s an account from another federation. I was tepidly against federation at first but this has been entertaining, like the old days of people who wandered into the sub.
I gotta imagine this will only last another week before everyone defederates us, but let’s enjoy it for now.
My thing is that I basically use Hexbear as a news aggregator, I don’t really find much value in re-articulating my views, other than as a writing exercise, it’s mostly a compulsive habit at this point. So I can take or leave federation, it doesn’t really change that much, other than I won’t lurk as much and will post more, which might not be a good thing.
writing practice is valuable :) semper
Posting more is definitely a good thing
