Hexbear has existed for longer than the Confederacy.

[-] CyborgMarx@hexbear.net 54 points 5 days ago

I-was-saying In my day we had downvotes and a Korean Soldier broke our internet

[-] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 24 points 5 days ago

It wasn't funny to break the website as a joke

[-] Sphere@hexbear.net 16 points 5 days ago

And we had wreckers who just would not give up on a dumb John Kerry meme

Can't say I would root for those days but anyways - happy caik day.

Feels like the world's only gotten worse since then.

About five years ago is also when I first came out as nonbinary and got told it'd just be a phase by my family

Well I'm still here and I have y'all so the world is good sometimes

13 more years until we get a c/porn.

[-] Florn@hexbear.net 25 points 5 days ago

[-] WhatDoYouMeanPodcast@hexbear.net 11 points 4 days ago

let's not get ahead of ourselves here

[-] SoloboiNanook@hexbear.net 20 points 5 days ago

Kinda crazy how many people in this thread have been here for 5 years lol

[-] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 16 points 4 days ago

And after all these years, we still aren’t sorry for offending slaveowners. John Brown did nothing wrong.

Anybody who tells me happy cake day today is getting an album of my hemorrhoids as revenge.

Edit: HAHA YOU FOOLS, HEMORRHOIDS IS MY CAT'S NAME! YOU'RE GETTING CAT PICTURES INSTEAD!

HAPPY CAKE DAY (i like hemorrhoids, i think they are neat)

[-] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 11 points 5 days ago

Until you've had them. That shit sucks.

[-] umbrella@lemmy.ml 11 points 5 days ago

my partner had them some ago and it was a literal pain in the ass. needless to say i eat a lot of fiber nowadays.

[-] abc@hexbear.net 16 points 5 days ago

EW my hexbear is five years old and if your account anniversary isn't today you're a fucking liberal

[-] 9to5@hexbear.net 17 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

Or maybe some of us care about OPSEC cause we're doing wetwork IRL gotta be a smooth operator and all. smuglord

[-] ScreamoBMO@hexbear.net 16 points 5 days ago

My account anniversary was the 25th, liberal

[-] Pisha@hexbear.net 14 points 4 days ago

I refuse to accept that 5 years have passed already

[-] Super_Lumalo@hexbear.net 14 points 4 days ago

It's kind of amazing that I've only been here since GenZedong shit the bed. So while I'm not old old, I still have been here for a while. Time do be flying for all of us don't it? It's nice being on the only good place on the internet, and it's nice that it is here.

Don't worry... me too tovarish (in fact, you might know me from a different account in lemmygrad.ml)

[-] Super_Lumalo@hexbear.net 4 points 4 days ago

Do recognize you, the posting during federation was really fucking fun.

[-] Frogmanfromlake@hexbear.net 15 points 5 days ago

I feel old as shit reading that

[-] Ram_The_Manparts@hexbear.net 2 points 4 days ago

Tell me about it.

When hexbear was born I was closer to 40 than 50.

Today I am closer to 50 than 40.

[-] Crucible@hexbear.net 13 points 4 days ago

Never relax. You never know when the silver legion's plans will finally come to fruition.

[-] eldavi@lemmy.ml 14 points 5 days ago

i wish i had discovered it sooner

[-] neo@hexbear.net 10 points 4 days ago

and yet my birthday is on the 25th. hmm phoenix-smug

almost Christmas means it wasn't Christmas

[-] thelastaxolotl@hexbear.net 12 points 5 days ago

Nah the anniversary was 4 days ago

[-] LocalOaf@hexbear.net 11 points 5 days ago
[-] Salem@hexbear.net 9 points 4 days ago

I think Hexbear grew out of its growing pains by early 2023, with the exception of the dunk_tank shutdown incident.

This vibe has been the norm since that year, I think.

[-] ScreamoBMO@hexbear.net 9 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

Hexbear is old enough that people who were teenagers when it launched may feel old for the first time because of this post

[-] JoeByeThen@hexbear.net 9 points 5 days ago

Today? A couple weeks ago or so, I think.

[-] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 8 points 4 days ago

Dort_Owl was born 5 years ago and already is a glorious phoenix flying in the sky, so proud of us.

Another anniversary! Unlimited caik day onto chapo.chat
