On this week this niche leftist forum was first launched (its was the 24th or 25th i think) Formed from the Chapotraphouse subreddit remnants that survived the reddit ban over the calls of violence against confederate slave owners, the first admins decided to use Lemmy as its base. Originally called Chapo.chat (ChaCha) Hexbear has grown into one of the biggest instances in the lemmyverse.

In this last 5 years hexbear has survived many diffent events from numerous struggle sessions, mod clique-users conflicts, wrecker incursions from other instances and sites, this image dprk-soldier, a decent amount of fedidrama with other instances and the domain crisis, we still thrive with over 5 million comments and 375k posts.

I still continue my dictatorial rule over the general megathread for now over 4 years now, this time locked in the chapo comm so it can be more easily moderated, c/indigenous has now grown to 750 subs which im very happy plus now i take care of the empoc mega which has been pretty chill so far.

I still really enjoy the fedidrama, it fun to see all the fedilibs always thinking about hexbear despide the fact that they are on defederated instances and they can ust ignore us, we live rent free on their minds

Talking about NSFW artIt's odd how little NSFW art there is of the Hades games. You might say "It's because they're all related" but that has literally never stopped NSFW artists. If you go on Rule34 right now and look up Hades (game), there's only 2618 results. Undertale has 55645 results. What?

spoiler

I think there's a number of reasons.

  1. the characters are already pretty hot in official art, seeing them boink/naked kinda isn't necessary

  2. There's no "corruption", like "teehee I put big boinkers on the goat mom". These are Greek gods, they fuck and suck for a living

  3. Drawing essentially realistic people banging is too hard/ time consuming for most porn artists who want to hop on a trend and put out a ton of shit

  4. They're not furries
