Why isn't Hexbear federated? (lemmy.ml)

Hexbear has a bit over 20 thousand users, similar to Lemmy. Both Lemmy and Hexbear would benefit from federation. So, what's missing?

Gosh why even fork Lemmy?

At the time Lemmy was not federating and they wanted to add some stuff like stickers and some other cool stuff, so now that federation works it is more complicated.

Wow, Lemmy without federation? That doesn't sound like Lemmy! :)

When are we getting stickers?

I'm going to make my own Lemmy, with blackjack and stickers!

LemmyNSFW has forked the lemmy UI to add an option to auto-expand images, IIRC
