all the idiots kept in containment by defederation will start jumping ship to other instances, and start causing trouble for users and moderators

Many of them already do that with alt accounts, which would explain the considerable number of downvotes here.

They followed me around and down voted everything I posted for a while (memes, conversational comments, everything). Oh and they also threatened to kill me. Fuck hexbear and all its users.

I had a Hexbear account, but I once posted something that got 10+ upvotes, then someone came along, took it out of context and made an unfounded accusation.

I pushed back as gently as I could, got dogpiled, then the mods removed my comments. So I deleted the rest of my comments and posts along with my account.

They like to complain about how their bad reputation is undeserved, and then refuse to look in the mirror because they're always right.
