I think we have a general path forward based on community feedback. “We see you, we hear you!”

I went ahead and unpinned the old post. I’m pinning this one for now and will edit this post when I wake up from eepy time. I had a very mid week and have no particular alarm set so be on look out. Love y’all and I’m amped for my first announcement post since coming back. :)

    We need to face the fact that hexbear as a community isn’t especially erudite compared to other leftist spaces…

    That’s exactly the thing that makes it special though. You can get shitposts and effortposts in the same space in a very unique way here. Hexbear is genuinely one of the only online leftist spaces that defies this paradigm

    The welcoming environment of Hexbear to all leftists is mentally and socially liberating and thus allows a much wider and more authentic experience. Yeah it’s great to get a 100% what I was looking for answer from a leftist reddit post with 3 comments all stuffed with only sources and academic language and then locked, but where’s the community or casual discussion? That’s not how real life works
