That tracks. A forum where most people speak English but have political views in alignment with a lot of the global south is nigh unheard of. Lately I've been thinking that we might start getting attention for it from the wider internet just because of how unique this place is
An economist article about online extremism
They even claim the US is not always a force for good
The only kinda semi-based place on the English speaking internet where I can say Z
I'll take my putinbux now
Yandex sorting by active
Weird, that seems to be one of the only ones that shows up. Even searching hexbear returns results for prolewiki and the gitlab first
You would think it would be the first result for beanis.
Deeply unserious webforum obsessed with "beanis" a corruption of the words bean plus penis.
How do we get boosted on Baidu now? Xi pls help us
huh wow maybe we really are putin bots...
I once searched up some russian names mentioned here when the terrorist attack happened at the stadium. There were only 3 results on google: Twitter, some Russian bot news outlet, and Hexbear lol
Welcome aboard comrade Yandex.
Holy shit. This is like levels of recognition that caused the subreddit to be monitored
I fear for this place’s life
I compared the results from DDG and Yandex with the same search. DDG is all Western MSM while Yandex has some social media sites including a thread on NeoGAF lol
It’s always amusing to see westerners promote DDG as some privacy/uncensored alternative. Dog if a company has enough money to run ads all over the web and the superbowl, its not protecting your information.
At this point DDG is basically just an alternative frontend for Bing.
we're not beating the "Paid by Russians" allegations smdh daddy Xi would never abandon me like this
Ye. That was me.
Noticed it a while ago but wasn't sure whether or not I should have mentioned it because it only serves to add to the spectre of Hexbear but it was too funny not to mention it and my ADHD impulsiveness got the better of me so here we are lol.
I often get hits for Hexbear on the first or second page of results. It was quite jarring the first time it happened to me when I was trawling for pirated materials and I was like "Huh, that's Hexbear...
Wait, wtf is Hexbear doing on Yandex!?"
