Edit - Hexbear announced plans to deferedate from us.

~~After recent events, it feels to me that sentiment has shifted and more people are asking for defederation of hexbear than previously~~
~~I've been doing my best to try and mend bridges and keep us connected, as it's my hope that we can maintain trans solidarity and work with them, despite the friction, however, ultimately, I feel that this is an issue for the blahaj lemmy community to decide, not the admins alone~~
~~So here's what we're going to do~~
~~We're going to leave things as they are for a week. That will give time for things to calm down whilst we see if we can work together. After a week, I'll put up a vote and get a feel for where the community is at in regards to our continued federation with hexbear. That poll will run for a week. If there is a strong will to defederate (a clear majority), then that's what we will do~~
Fuckin' ludicrous. Absolutely fuckin' ridiculous. Where was this restraint with lemmynsfw? Where was the "wait and mull things over" there? Why shoot from the hip in one instance and hold fire on the other one? Goddamn, the hypocrisy is palpable.
I really do not understand why people are so pressed about that
My understanding of the situation is:
Ada: whoa I think I saw CSAM
Other Admin: No it's legal so it will stay
Ada: While it is legal, I am uncomfortable having any content that could be mistaken for CSAM on my instance, goodbye
It's not like you can't make an account on plenty of other instances to interact with lemmynsfw if you really wanted to. The majority of the blahaj community here seem totally fine with her decision too, so it's not like some crazy power trip
