        well, if corporate media don't tell us small brains that all this is "good, actually", people would just assume something went wrong.

        turns out when shit explodes violently, it's a big win for whatever it was you were doing.

        this is going to revolutionize the way I approach my professional life.

      I assumed with the lack of "I told u so" threads the launch somehow succeeded against all odds and that hexbear got owned so everyone stopped talking it

      dam mfs a shocked-pikachu-face would've at least been a nice heads up lmao

        You had to be here within 2-12 hours of the launch happening there were like 6 or 7 different threads all at once.

        What probably happened for you is that because everyone was spread over different threads instead of one single thread the voting and discussion power bumping them in the algo was diluted so the threads dropped before you saw them.

          Yeah I was asleep then I went to work, I was saving checking into hexbear as a special treat during lunch to see what happened, but when I did I didn't even see a single thread about the launch

          So I was like "dam we got owned lmao" and then promptly forgot about it
