Hexbear Proposals chapo.chat matrix room.

This will be a place for site proposals and discussion before implementation on the site.
Every proposal will also be mirrored into a pinned post on the hexbear community.

Any other ideas for helping to integrate the two spaces are welcome to be commented here or messaged to me directly.

Within Hexbear Proposals you can see the history of all site proposals and react to them, indicating a vote for or against a proposal.

Sending messages will be restricted to verified and active hexbear accounts older than 1 month with their matrix id in their hexbear user profile.

All top level messages within the channel must be a Proposals (idea for changing the site), Feedback (regarding non-technical aspects of the site, for technical please use https://hexbear.net/c/feedback), or Appeals (regarding admin/moderator actions).

Discussion regarding these will be within nested threads under the post.

To gain matrix verification, all you need to do is navigate to my hexbear userprofile and click the send a secure private message including your hexbear username.

I DID THE UPDATE to the applications.

They're LIVE LIVE LIVE

you can view them when you go to make a new account

please don't use this as an opportunity to make new accounts.

or do, whatevs.

but ANSWER THE DAMN PROMPS OR I'LL DENY YOUR FUNNY COOL USERNAMES

edit: I'll leave this up for the rest of the day to let everyone know its done. I'll probably leave this unlocked so if anyone else wants to drop by and improve a translation or add a new one they can pop by and drop it in instead of making a whole new post or DMing me. not that's gonna stop anyone from doing exactly that lmao either one's fine.

old message

Hi folks, its me. hog-post

I'm stealing the top of the website for a few days because a thought occurred to me a while back that goes along the lines of "damn, we really haven't updated the application for a hot minute haven't we?" also "damn we're getting quite a few international folks in but they might not know what the lingo and abbreviations in the application really mean"

which leads me to this post: shocked-dino

A general poll on what languages hexbear users know... (read: I'm too lazy to figure out how to do an actual poll thingy so I'll just tally up everyones comments. Also don't be a smartass and say "English lol" angery )

And, arguably more exciting, a general request to our multilingual users to help translate the application into their language in order to help other possible new folks to know what we're all about. (Also a general discussion on whether or not this is a good idea. I got a thumbs up from the others in the cabal of evil admins but I'm playing fast and loose with this because I had just drank a bunch of coffee when I wrote this up and I was vibrating like a hairless chihuahua walking through a park in fall. silly-liberator )

To remind people what the application looks like, it's the following three sentences.

How did you find out about Hexbear, and why do you want to join?

Why did you choose your username?

What are your views on Gender and Sexual Minorities [GSM] / LGBTQ rights, racial justice, animal liberation, and similar movements?

So to summarize, Im bored, im curious what languages everyone speaks, and I'm looking for volunteers to translate the application into their native tongue so future applicants can have an easier time understanding what the site's about. The translated versions will be contained in spoilers so as to ensure the whole application page doesn't look densely bloated like me after eating oatmeal kiryu-dame-da-ne

It would be cool if there were a way that new pinned posts would show up without needing to expand the pins.

Or maybe some day I’ll figure out how to enjoy mega threads so that I stop hiding them.
