can anyone explain why I keep seeing their garbage after attempting to block everything hexbear related? I don’t even mind the occasional tankie that much, but this lot is fucking bonkers.
Lemmy and federation is very buggy. I’m from an instance which hexbear defederated from, but I sometimes still see posts from hexbear when browsing all+new. It seems like it doesn’t always get around to checking defederation when fetching new threads.

Change your instance, i’m on lemmy.world which has defederated hexbear and I see no tankie posts.
had issues with lemmy.world for a while and went to lemmy.ee, will give that a try I suppose.
I just can’t fathom why I can’t eliminate .hex from my feed lol
As a stopgap measure you can use the Connect app, which has instance blocking.
