I decided I would actually take a scroll through hexbear to see how their LGBT community was getting on, since that seems to be the largest and the LGBT communities I have access to are sadly lacking in activity.

I checked out their main page and read a few posts. There’s just something that irks me about people glorifying Mao who was numerically worse than Hitler.

    They seem to post a lot of images in comments.

      Those are emojis on their side. It will probably be fixed in the next lemmy release.

        That’s not exclusive to them though, there seems to be a lot of genuine star trek fans on the platform.
