No commentary here. I just think we should find more comrades and bring them into our fold. How do we do it? Post your ideas, no matter how wild. Maybe someone will see it and get inspired and make something happen.

Generally the way a thing grows is by getting visibility elsewhere.
This is achieved in companies by sockpuppet sharing (marketing team intentionally targeting other spaces with re-shares of content), watermarks, advertising, collaborations and generally being edgy enough that people talk about you for the fact your existence is novel.
One of the things this community doesn't do enough of is talk about or share Hexbear outside of Hexbear, like it's some secret or too embarrassing to mention.
One thing I see on tiktok that Hexbear isn't doing is slideshows, there's easy content to produce like "best of hexbear" which is just reposting a slideshow of 4-5 memes, run by an official hexbear account. Reddit does this. It's relatively easy to do this two ways, targeting leftist stuff and targeting trans stuff, "sharing hexbear memes" (trans) is easy trans bait.
I always liked the memes that were just shit like "silence, liberal " with a chapo/hb watermark, that always seemed like it would snag the kind of people that would fit in here
That’s a really good idea
With trans memes too they don't even necessarily need to be from here lmao, although if you have good ones you should post them here too lol. But generally just reposting shit works and the algo will do the rest eventually.
The main barrier is having someone that wants to do it and keeps it up consistently.
We could do a member interest check similar to the mod interest checks and get 2-3 people on the TikTok account to possibly solve the consistency issue.
