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?

Speaking for myself here, but one thing that always makes me happy is seeing more users who are into Star Trek, furries, into hobbies, or any combination of those.

Star Trek and furries are great. You've been very welcoming. Hopefully more hobby and niche content is making it through now that y'all have run the bot. The lemmy devs are also toying with the algorithms to give smaller comms more weight for visibility.

The part about smaller comms is especially great news imo. We have quite a few comms here that could use more love.
