Maybe it is more than an instance. Maybe it is an idea, a world-historical vanguard, light itself.
actual attempt to answer (cringe)
We’ve been around for three years on a lemmy fork before federation. The lack of federation for years as well as the place we splintered off from (/r/chapotraphouse) already having a unique microculture within Reddit has given this instance, in my opinion, a distinct culture compared to general-purpose and even other hobbyist instances.
Regarding specifics, Hexbear is a vehemently queer-friendly/intersectional anti-sectarian socialist instance. Check us out
Hexbear is great because they let me be weird and I appreciate it

Oh no
I’m afraid you’re going to have to lead the riots in Toledo, the official city of Hexbear. It’s a shame you weigh 6 oz and aren’t a 350lb horror from the ancient world like Gritty is. Gritty has never been at risk of being accidentally stepped on.
we are fucked
Get em in ankles Dirt_Owl!

Dirt_owl is a fucking hoothoot confirmed

Pellet gang
I thought the official city of hexbear was Liberal Mountain, Montana?
it was so desirable that it got fought over in a mini-civil war, it’s close enough to Cedar Point for a long weekend, and lives there
I grew up there so I’m very on board
It was great when you joined and immediately brought an extremely powerful and specific energy to the site
I think my first post was me complaining about being covered in centipedes followed by a post of a skeleton complaining that the centipedes won
Not sure what to call that energy lol

I don’t remember that post but I went through your old posts and this was the first one. Although we didn’t get the signature Dirt_Owl posting until this post which is just the right amount of immature humor, weirdness, and mildly horny that we now know as the signature Dirt_Owl post.
Ohhhh so my first post was more serious then I thought.
Oh geez back when the covid toll was less then a million haha oooo nooo
You’re pretty great. Can’t imagine this place without you. But to be honest, that’s how I feel about most of us.
We love you Dirt_Owl
Dirt_Owl is the great poster
