Whole bunch of new posters and no federation style influx of chuds and libs who can't read the room. All the new people seem cool as hell and whoever pied piper's those rats over deserved some applause.
Based as hell.
But also what even happened over there? I made an account because but got bored after 10 minutes of lib cope right after the election.
from what I understand, classic liberalism (immediately capitulated to fascists while throwing marginalized people under the bus)
I stopped by Bluesky to search for "hexbear" trying to see what was said to cause this influx of users and their search function is buggy as hell. It keeps refreshing and showing "no results" or some other error, then blinks in with a few posts but you can't scroll without it bugging out again. I tried it on several browsers and it's fucked. The site is literally unusable.

I've always said we needed to reach out off-lemmy to grow in non-toxic healthy ways, and it's finally happening
whoever is responsible for bringing a horde of bluesky people here pls help, ii'm scared. i don't think i can post hard enough to radicalise all these innocents
Very glad to see an influx of cool people here. I only hope we continue this great path.
Don't think we've ever had a flood of new users where we didn't have to filter wreckers. It's a good group
Agreed, a lot of the 196 (not all) were unfortunately very closed minded and not very respectful or nice. It's cool having a group we seem to get along with for once
I agree. These new users coming in are all pretty fantastic and will be great to have on the site
Obviously they must be an incredibly hot, mysterious, hoopy frood who really knows where their towel is.
The pace has really picked up, the vibes are good. I was sceptical at first because I'd heard bad things about bsky, but I've been pleasantly surprised.
Hell yeah. Hexbear is radder than ever right now. I hope these new folks stick around
