Like I don’t really use any other social media, but sometimes (like this past week) I venture outside of my hexbear bubble and I browse twitter, or reddit, or instagram, or tiktok, and holy shit I just browse those websites for a minute or two and feel worse about myself, worse about the world, it honestly seems like everyone on those sites is completely insufferable and every post is designed in some CIA laboratory to make me irrationally angry. Like look, sometimes we can all get annoyed at each other here, and I am no exception to that, and nowhere is perfect, but wow this place is 1000% better than like the majority of the internet, I honestly don’t know how people go through life at this point browsing the regular internet.

    This place legit motivates me to improve myself and I can’t think of another online space as mind-opening or conducive to healthy discussion. The reputation this place gets as some kind of toxic shitpit is totally unwarranted.
