2. Don't link to transphobia
Please don't link to transphobia (or other bigotry), even if your personal intent is to challenge the bigotry in some way. Provide a content warning label in the title of your post where applicable.
3. Be dank; don't be not-dank
No liberalism, capitalist apologia, imperialism, etc.

genuinely thanks for making Hexbear an awesome queer-friendly space everybody. for all the "tankie" that gets thrown around, I still know I'm loved here.
"Don't hang out with these people, they're tankies!", the liberals in the walls told me, and an apparent 90% of my fellow anarchists concurred, "We do NOT fraternize with the tankies!"
Thus I hesitated, seeing the link to !chapotraphouse@hexbear.net appearing on my screen. My heart pounded; I felt like Indiana Jones about to swap the golden idol for a bag of sand. I knew that what I did next could haunt me for the rest of my life. Thoughts raced through my mind: what if I ended up in some sort of dreaded echo chamber and became one of... them?
— My stomach turned, but regardless, Lady Curiosity in that moment descended behind me. She grabbed my trembling hand, moved the mouse cursor over the link, and clicked it.

"What the fuck these people are all gay and based as hell"
Tankie-san, yamete~
How many oddly specific custom emojis do you people have?!
Hundreds
Edit: I think there used to be a github page with all of them, but I can't find it anymore
Before federation I think someone mentioned it in the thread about creating the hexbear mastodon instance and it was like 1150 or so iirc but since we've federated they're being added constantly now so idk how many there are now
They're cool, right?
Very cool!
