I keep saying “Computers is not a hobby for me”

Also you just did the thing

Linux people are unhelpful true once again

It’s kinda like connecting a sleepy road as a bypass or service road to an incredibly busy highway. I dont blame anyone for being a little alarmed at the monstrous increase of activity all of a sudden

So dont even have a month of federation yet

Yeah, dunno how #10 accurately reflects our rank because we are far and away more active than many of these instances

I would’ve guessed 20x more.

We love our emotes

Curious about the blank stats for hexbear. Should this populate over several weeks or do they pull from OUR statistics and it just didnt take them yet?

there are a lot of <250 user instances on that list.

They would probably never see their local content again

I dont think they’re supposed to be any safe at all. As part of our board culture we’re to expect that DMs offer no security, and to use other platforms if it’s a concern.

Just block all of france.

I think the internet will actually appreciate that

I think one thing that stands us out among other spaces on the internet is rejection of common referential humor, this space almost demands you develop your own thing, and enjoy our beautifully curated collection of emotes Also our moderation is pretty top notch, and you get a sense it’s okay to fail here. It gives you a fearlessness. Like, we dont make small dick jokes here about people we dont like because we dont want to hurt anyone who does have a small dick in the community, also because it reinforces bs masculinity tropes. So this means we have to approach from new angles and this limitation fosters a creativity in us. And I think you can have this too, with enough time.

We dont all like lazy humor or really cheap shots, and cherish bits and running jokes with each other. Have you seen our owl? It’s very dirty.

I’ve been on Hexbear the entire time. It’s inclusive, yet has zero tolerance for reactionary attitudes.

Also since federation we actually have been complaining the quality of posts we see have gone down. You all lack an energy that made r/cth and hexbear such a breath of fresh air.
