I just started my bot @[email protected]; and it's begun subscribing to a ridiculous amount of communities. This is important because in order for a federated community to appear in the all page one member of the local instance must subscribe to that community. Some new communities I can already see are /c/UnixPorn and /c/SelfHost. Posts might take a while to populate, though, as these are new communities Hexbear hasn't yet seen

Thanks to @[email protected] for the advice in this thread.

Please note, hornyposters, that I've disabled subscribing to NSFW communities. volcel-kamala

That emoji is so cool, is it new? kobeni-dance

[-] [email protected] 24 points 2 years ago

Must be >:D

I miss when we had the git repo full of emojis though, it always was so up to date, now we have to do guesswork to find what the latest emojis are bern-disgust

[-] [email protected] 25 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Yeah I have a few emoji submissions that never got added because I submitted them while the site was in its Albanian bunker arc, called like :corbyn-gamer:, :smut-busters: and :bipartisanship: and a few others

Maybe I should resubmit them or something

[-] [email protected] 17 points 2 years ago

collusion was bipartisanship this one?

[-] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

It was the meme that went "bill votes republican and sara votes democrat, bill and Sara are still friends because they both want to bomb brown people"

But just the two stick figures holding hands

Maybe I should resubmit them or something

When will then be now?

[-] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

Still disappointed we never got that Titan emote

[-] [email protected] 16 points 2 years ago

Its not more than a week old im sure, it came with most other chainsaw man emotes

Holy shit this is an important caveat.

So... To maximise hexbear reach, it is beneficial for Hexbear to maintain an account on foreign instances which subscribes to all Hexbear comms, ensuring that the foreign instance receives all Hexbear content. Let's call these accounts embassies. @[email protected]

Honestly this should be explained to all instance owners and maintenance of embassy accounts should be a common practice. This is one thing Hexbear should encourage instance owners to do, and doing so will earn some good will.

I already did that on lemmee by the way

/c/UnixPorn

I'll inform the cybercrimes division.

The comm name is less the problem than how a few people refer to customizing their desktop UI with a racist term against Asians.

[-] [email protected] 18 points 2 years ago

Wait what 👀 I thought the term came out of the car modding community, what's it's history with Asian discrimination?

[-] [email protected] 21 points 2 years ago
[-] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago

Damn. I didn't know it was pejorative. I never had any real contact with racing culture, i just thought it was a term for Japanese and Korea street racing cars.

>Join community for Linux customisation

>They have a cool unique term for customising your setup

>It's racist

You can't do this to me! NOOOOO

[-] [email protected] 19 points 2 years ago

So glad it’s working out for you!

[-] [email protected] 19 points 2 years ago

This is awesome. Thanks for setting this up! meow-melt

Oh no a bear

Truthfully I have to admit I’m a part of that, but i actually like not having that as a part of my hexbear experience.

[-] [email protected] 15 points 2 years ago

I was wondering when someone would do this. It's a good idea

[-] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago

So we need an account on each instance subscribing to all the hexbear comms. thinkin-lenin

[-] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago

This is cool thanks

[-] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago

This is praxis.
