Send_nasty_stuff just noticed it was as easy as checking a box to put us on /all.

I pointed that out to him. He tried it for a bit and as predicted /s/All was dominated by the popular DAR posts, making SaidIt generally look like an Alt-Right website.

I understand. Like I said elsewhere - we like SaidIt, we want to stay - but we know we are a dominant user base that would affect the front page under normal conditions. If we need to be de-facto censored for the benefit of the site, then that's OK - but I want magnora to be honest about that and we'd like to have specific rules or something such that we can have our forum but also have certain posts visible to non-Alt-Right people so they can share their opinions too

The mistake that magnora made was the accusation of intent on our part in making SaidIt look like a specifically alt-right site. There is no such conspiracy, we simply didn't do anything wrong.

All rationally well stated.

The mistake that magnora made was the accusation of intent on our part in making SaidIt look like a specifically alt-right site.

He stoops to making bad accusations when he can't justify himself. I understand his reluctance as well as your dilemma and sympathize with both views.

There is no such conspiracy, we simply didn't do anything wrong.

Unless I'm missing something, this seems generally obvious, so I agree, but it doesn't help when dramatists inauthentically claim they're victims or threaten scorched earth tantrums.
