I’m not at all exaggerating when I say this. The bar is so incredibly, incomprehensibly low everywhere else that I’m about ready to call literally anyone who can join this community, be genuine, and still not get banned an actual saint.
And that’s no diss at the admins for being ban happy or whatever, that’s literally just how you create an online community full of good people and somehow Hexbear has been the first to realize it
Never before have I been in a space so tolerant of my being utterly embarrassing all the fuckin time, gotta say.
Not just tolerant, but even encouraging sometimes lmao
Personally I kinda wish hb would not encourage me, but it’s good that it encourages others I think.
That’s fair! I find it nice to have an online place to talk about weird stuff I enjoy that nobody I know IRL cares about, but I can see it easy to fall into a time trap (like any other social media).
It can be easy to fall into a time trap, but I am capable of self control surprisingly. It’s more that it serves as an outlet for embarrassing myself and putting my foot in my mouth and shit
I try.
I’m insecure tho and think y’all hate me 😅
If you post here and you’re not a lib or nazi you’re good in my book
It is if you’re in the right space between weird and extremely weird.
Hell yeah
Lol left space
One of the last posts in r/cth I remember was from a trans person saying this sub is the only non lgbtq sub they felt safe in as trans. I will always remember it fondly
This post is true, it’s “funny” to see the comparison directly above this post:
I kinda like how much of a gross shit hole twitter is
But I wouldn’t want to live there
Really glad I found this place, I had just got my nth reddit account banned after October 7 and finally said fuck it and switched to Lemmy.
best place on the internet
I love hexbear
The internet used to be packed with these. Then everything became 4 different giant websites.
Yes and in the process it made a handful of insufferable dorks impossibly rich.
Truly, a very bad thing happened. A modern tragedy.
It was a bad thing that made other things even worse. Web 2.0 and it’s consequences have been a disaster. The internet used to be genuinely a fun place. I’m not learned enough, but I don’t see why it can’t be done again behind the scenes of the scroll nightmare. Not like early 2000s websites were coding miracles. People may need to get over everything being s video to get off the YouTube but I can recall being considered a digimon prophet or having an uncle that worked at Nintendo digimon equivalent cause I browsed fansitesnin 2nd grade and drew digimon thst wouldn’t be on TV for mo ths cause fans it’s had Japanese episodes. Being internet learned was cool as hell
Who’d have thunk that banning chuds instead of the people calling them out would create a somewhat healthy community?
but what about
???
I don’t post much because I don’t have an email job and can’t sit on here all day but I love checking in on my internet commies who are also like 50x more trans than the global average.
If it wasn’t for this site I would be way more doomer and definitely still in the closet wondering why I’m depressed literally all the time.
I’m a cook, I just post on the shitter and smoke breaks and then stay up too late posting after.
Hexbear has quite literally saved my life before. Yall are the best and im never leaving.
You fools are stuck with me now.
I witnessed your creation (online). It made me want to improve so i can maybe create something of my own eventually. I hope it is going well for you! Phrasing is probably weird i just wanted to keep it vague lol
It is indeed going well! Leaving for a little tour next week, putting out some records this year. DM me if you wanna explain what you mean, now I’m curious!
Even like the stinky owls?
Even the smelly raccoons like @TankieTanuki@hexbear.net ?
Even the beanis?!?
Some people happen enjoy my trash smell FYI.
It’s more of an aroma
Especially the stinky owls! And the smelly raccoons! The more dishevled and filthy the better! And yeah the beanis too, I guess!
