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?

Been lurking for a few months but this is first online space I haven't gotten those fucked vibes from

I'm still getting through my list of theory so I don't feel confident joining certain conversations yet but I'd like to think being open-minded to deprogramming all the western propaganda bullshit I've ingested over a lifetime has helped me discover this community

Say the wrong thing some time. Folk will set you right. Its a bit rough on the ego but nothing stamps out brain worms quite like a stern rebuke and as soon as you say "oh shit you are right" everything is good.

I'd almost consider it like an online anxiety lol. Mustering up the strength to not revert back to being a lurker after not expressing a thought succinctly and powering through the posting to stamp those worms out.
