The ruqqus drama went down shortly after r/MGTOW was banned from Reddit. The influx onto ruqqus ended up being a bit unpalatable and they too were banned. This caused a lot of infighting which rapidly led to ruqqus being shut down.

Notabug.io is another nice alternative, though the person who manages the DNS here usually forwards traffic to r/saiditnet in the event of an outage.

I dunno about Notabug.io, it seems both primitive and confusing at the same time. And kinda desolate (even more so than saidit). Can you make your own communities/subs there? And like... how does it really work? What's its use case?

    I'm looking for something else than saidit to have a backup. If I'm going to put any effort into stuff, I just want to have an illusion of safety. Tho I'll probably shill my sub on a couple of places on reddit, I think there can be a few people who'd want to go there.

    There are only topics, and they aren't pre-defined. You just type in whatever you want.

    I had thought that notabug.io would be OK, but it's been abandoned and has disruptive posters rampaging through the site.

    I had thought that notabug.io would be OK, but it's been abandoned

    Abandoned? The ssl certs are still regularly updated, bots that censor offensive speech still work, submissions are still clearly oriented toward a certain objective, real users still post content every day, and the server is still regularly restarted. Did you have evidence to support your claim?

    and has disruptive posters rampaging through the site.

    There have certainly been efforts to disrupt the website. Have they been successful? No, their schemes are clearly seen through. They are incentivized to destroy the website, whether it is to use it as a surrogate for their own fork, or to protect the individuals responsible for the events that have taken place there in the past year, I know not.

    The last time I checked, the front page was full of garbage, all of which had been upvoted to 111 or thereabouts. When I made a post pointing this out, several accounts told me to fuck off and one actual account said that the creator was known to abandon the site for months at a time and that I shouldn't expect anything better. I left after that.

    I'm not sure what your definition of garbage is but I hardly think that a smattering of varied articles -- not all of which are political -- is it. The content doesn't change as quickly as on saiddit, for example, but it is generally fresh enough that I visit once a day. If there's anything to complain about it's the dearth of comments. As of writing there's not a single post on the FP that's higher than 40.

    I'm not saying notabug is great. In fact it's rather weak cheese. But it's not garbage either.

    I don't blame you for leaving. I'm sorry this was your experience, but please understand how trying it is for those who actively want to see the website succeed. This abusive behavior is what led me to the predicament that I face (namely that I lost my life savings to go1dfish) and I supect this abuse to be paid for by some government, and closely tied to Havana Syndrome.

    That's cool that you want to gaslight me, but I said nothing excessively outlandish, nor do I even know you.

    You read what you posted, right?

    namely that I lost my life savings to go1dfish

    This is proven

    supect this abuse to be paid for by some government

    This is still happening and clearly has some agenda

    and closely tied to Havana Syndrome.

    And this you'll just have to take my word on, given I've been screaming about it for seven months straight now.

    Whats more crazy is the fact that the Welcome to notabug post has a -1074 rating
