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?

I think this is the objectively correct answer lenin-laugh

However how about for me who is sadly an older adult?

Everyone I know who is trying to learn a language as an adult uses duolingo, but I think that's more out of convenience and less because it's actually the best way to learn.

The best way is still probably from a native language speaker who has been teaching a class for a while.
