They have a fairly good thing going there in terms of general energy and number of people on board but Reddit and lib mods could ruin it very fast. It also seems like we have a fair bit of exchange with them, even if a lot of us get banned. Do we want to make a liferaft comm /c/antiwork for the dual purpose of growing hexbear and providing a space where a sane and correct model of antiwork with leftist foundations can grow?

Weigh in with pros and cons below.

    We should definitely make a comm for antiwork so that I can have a place to rant about how much I hate my job every day.

    Some people here are worried that hexbear is going to become overwhelmed by reddit libs if we make lifeboat subs but there's no need to worry that's ever going to happen.

    This website has a specific culture that's basically unpenetrable to anyone other than terminally online leftists. That can be a blessing or a curse, depends on how you look at it. I think the current vibe of the site is nice but it would be good if there was a slow influx of new users.
