New Hexbear Users Appreciation Post (hexbear.net)

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?

struggle sessions on hexbear are when there's a large disagreement on a specific subject and arguments ensue. It's not a struggle session if it's everyone ganging up on one lib or chud, it's only one if it's more of a 50-50 split in the community. Usually it resolves by mods locking the thread but sometimes it spreads to other threads. We don't allow sectarianism so its not usually a struggle session between say anarchist and marxists, but instead on some single issue.

Thank you! Do you happen to know an example of a topic which caused a struggle session?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Past examples include silly topics such as whether or not bidets are bourgeois, to more serious topics such as Xinjiang or Ukraine crisis. Everything from outdoor cats vs. indoor cats, veganism, use of controversial terms/phrases

Thanks for the explanation, I feel like I am ready for my own struggle session. Critical support for the vegan patrol! /hj
