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?

Very excited to have you aboard!

No ableism knifecat

Don't forget, if you need to you can disengage from a conversation at any time, just say disengage if you ever need to, if users don't respect that they get banned on the spot o7

Please post, please ask questions, and remember

just say disengage if you ever need to

Little corollary: this is not to be used as a "let me post a wall of text and call you names then say 'disengage' and call the mods on you if you reply" tool. You have to actually disengage. Learning how to do that is good.

On Lemmy.world the downvotes mean your triggering the cognitive dissonance - that’s my kink.

Omg I wish everywhere did that.

I had a conversation earlier that I wanted to disengage with because the person was strawmanning me and it was clear, after pointing out to them already that’s what they were doing, I wasn’t going to have a productive discussion, so I said I was no longer going to interact and got 2 reply meaaages to it, basically trying to egg me on to re-engage, one of which said it was ironic I was telling him I was disengaging.. Simply because I told him I was doing so?? (Which I did not respond to, for obvious reasons)

I love that that will be respected here. 💜
