Huh? I haven't seen that at all. They existed for years before there were all these instances, they weren't even federated. They'd survive just as well on their own even if every instance blocked them.

The point I was making was less about activity within hexbear, more about their activity in other instances. In the instances they're still federated with, I see fewer hexbear comments but instead comments from lemmy.ml and some others that sound like hexbear users.
