yay now you have to watch the whole video to tell if it’s a scam/troll/shitty tutorial, at least capeshit movie trailers won’t be downvoted anymore

Hexbear out here inventing shit and then YouTube tries to pass this off as NOT stealing honey from mama Hexbear. It makes me mad. We’re the ones on the cutting edge, and comrades, only the revolution will free us of this revisionism.

Fuck, that sucks. I remember when Youtube used to show you the number of stars a video had in the thumbnail back when they had stars. You didn’t even have to click on a video to know it was bad and not worth your time.

Now we’re all gonna have to sit through clickbait, scams, screamers, just generally bad videos every single time.

There is so much useful information on Youtube that it’s basically impossible. You can stop watching Youtube for entertainment, sure. But it’d be terrible to give up all of the tutorial videos, educational videos, technical videos, etc. For that there is basically no replacement.

Numbers (and writing) were likely invented to keep track of tax collection in ancient societies, likely by scribes at the time. Literally a bourgeois invention to keep down the proletariat.

thinking about that earliest known bit of writing that’s like some guy complaining about the quality of a copper shipment or something

“I am not getting water for my sesame field. The sesame will die. Don’t tell me later, ‘You did not write to me.’ The sesame is visibly dying. Ibbi-Ilabrat saw it. That sesame will die, and I have warned you.”

It’s so funny that mathematics, literature, and poetry are all very beautiful fields, and they might not exist if some rich guy didn’t need to keep track of who owed him money.

Most of the “how-tos” I’ve searched on Google pointed me (on the entire first page of results) to shitty ad-infested sites that are just advertisements themselves for some awful product. Google has made the internet infinitely worse.

Create post

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
