Like I don’t really use any other social media, but sometimes (like this past week) I venture outside of my hexbear bubble and I browse twitter, or reddit, or instagram, or tiktok, and holy shit I just browse those websites for a minute or two and feel worse about myself, worse about the world, it honestly seems like everyone on those sites is completely insufferable and every post is designed in some CIA laboratory to make me irrationally angry. Like look, sometimes we can all get annoyed at each other here, and I am no exception to that, and nowhere is perfect, but wow this place is 1000% better than like the majority of the internet, I honestly don’t know how people go through life at this point browsing the regular internet.
Sometimes I try to go to reddit to talk about my special interests but holy shit everyone there is so fucking dumb. It’s not even politics sometimes, just terminal reddit brain and absolutely 0 media literacy. Hexbear is also the only “social media” site I’ve been a part of that isn’t just constantly enshittified.
