Wouldn't it be cool if we asked questions about things other than Reddit/Said It or Politics?

Sounds like a good idea to me. I think what we're seeing right now is a lot of refugees from reddit who are pissed off at their new policies, which ties in to politics/differences from saidit etc. I think (hope) things will settle down a bit in a couple of weeks when the refugees calm down and just resume what they were doing on reddit before they were pushed out.

Personally, I like music and music production. What do you like/want to talk about?

I read a lot. I do some writing.. I like history, but I don't really want to politicize it. s/books had several things about the Jewish conspiracy. Kinda a hard pass for me.

I'm going to start scanning AskReddit and either rewording the questions or using them to inspire my own.

The right wingers (from the centre to afar) were generally not welcome in subreddits, so they have been dwelling in these so called free speech alternatives quietly longer than most of us (most of whom migrated post Reddit purge), so some of the content might be a bit intense for the regular crowd. I have observed a few as well. Good on them, as long as they are not inciting or mobilising for violence.

You can contribute your own content to these subs and balance them a little perhaps. After all, we share and build the community.

Also, I greatly appreciate the lack of downvotes in Saidit

Yeah, I'll try to be the change I want to see in the SaidIt. Just trying to light the fire for others as well. Every pleasant discussion, word game, or cat meme actually strengthens the place by making it more of a home.

Isn't it a breath of fresh air? No one is getting instantly buried and shamed, even when everyone else doesn't agree with them. It's so great.
