Chronicle the life and tale of the fediverse (+ matrix)
Largely a sublemmy about capturing drama, from fediverse spanning drama to just lemmy drama.
Includes lore like how a instance got it's name, how an instance got defederated, how an admin got doxxed, fedihistory etc
(New) This sub's intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don't get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama

I don't know why you would guess that instead of the more obvious answer of them actually systematically co-ordinating their posts to actually brigade. They always appear in groups larger than their subscriber numbers in communities outside of their own instance. That is their entire MO and reason for federating.
Even supported by their admins. They only intend to brigade, harass, and "dunk on" other instances with bad faith arguments and emoji spam.
If that's their plan, it was a very long plan in the making. Admirable, in a way.
I'd be as interested as anyone in seeing the secret Hexbear communities where they conspire, or perhaps leaked screenshots from whatever chat app they find ethically acceptable. Until then, I'm more likely to believe in the "Brigade Effect" rather than actual Brigades.
