New Hexbear Users Appreciation Post (hexbear.net)

submitted 1 year ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

196 comments fedilink hide all child comments

Hexbear has been getting a lot more attention and activity as of late, and while it is very fun to dunk on the new people posting on the site in bad faith, a post to appreciate the new good faith users contributing to the site seems like a great idea.

So, what new users do you appreciate, and what should other potential new users do to get the same reception?

Short answer is I don't remember any of their usernames yet.

But I've seen a good number that have been joining in on the dunking, joining/starting interesting good faith discussions, bringing in more hobby content, and just generally making the place feel fresher and more vibrant. If any of that's you, you know who you are rat-salute

also side note, I tried some interesting search queries to see if I could jog my memory on specific new users to shout out, and it turns out that https://hexbear.net/u/Bunhead is way up there when you sort by "top" presumably because their comment count being negative from deleted comments breaks the algorithm somehow data-laughing
