What does based mean in this context?

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 31 points 1 month ago

Very cool and good.

Based is used approvingly to describe someone who projects a lack of concern about how others feel about their actions or opinions. It can also describe a thing, such as an action or event, perceived as both bold and commendable, especially if it challenges or flouts convention in some way.
