By removing lemmy.world you remove half of Lemmy's content. Bad idea
And by removing hexbear you remove the other half
Hexbear activity seems to have dropped significantly since no one wants to be federated with them. Most of the users now lurk in other instances.
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.
lol the instance that went unfederated for three years needs federation to be active okay

The shit half lawl
Hexbear is nowhere close to half of Lemmy. Even the trio of Hexbear, Lemmygrad, and Lemmy.ml are a small, angry chunk.
Also formula1 is there
Most of it is trash and Lemmy.world becomes a walled garden.
