Prolix?

I'm not out to host a site, male, female, left, right, other, or anything tribal. I'm not even aiming to host a counter-propaganda conspiracy anti-authority free-thought site. Sites are centralized points of failure.

I'm trying to host a decentralized instance in a federation of other instances - ideally with a self-regulated community.

Also, please ping me next time. I almost missed this except I was curious about "what do you want in a forum?"

Prolix

Isn't that a neat word? It means verbose :D

LOL. Too true. IMO too much is better than too little info.

Prolix: unduly prolonged or drawn out : too long.

First recorded in 1375–1425; late Middle English, from Latin prōlixus “extended, long,” equivalent to prō- pro-1 + -lixus, akin to līquī “to flow”; see liquor

see liquor
