The cloudfair shit isn’t bothering me. And all the accounts complaining are like 3 days old.

Physical avatars are the worst, aren't they?

I mean, I've got more free speech than my place in Anytown, USA.

If you think about it, anytime you show an ID, of anykind, you're getting mixed up in govt or Corp identity sharing. Want to buy lotto? ID'd! Want that club discount? ID'd! Want to borrow this book? ID'd! Want to fish or hunt your own food? ID'd! Want to wear a pistil under your jacket? ID'd! Can't even walk the damn street without a 4k camera scanning my retina or AI'ing my gait.

Least here I just have to say I'm not a bot.

But are you? Are you really not a bot? As a long time user what is your opinion with regards to refugees?

Reddit refugees.

This is the closest alternative to reddit I could find. Lots of spam, almost no bots but kind of devoid of content.

I guess maybe I am a bot, but probably not. Also I consider myself one of these refugees. Reddit is a danming place and I had a hard time seeing that from the inside. But the lack of content here has highlighted to me my relationship with the internet. I now deliberately come here only to appease a certain set of topics - lack of content doesn't keep me here long at a single time. But I'm also reading more books and abosrbong more long form content... So I'm not terribly mad about the lack of content, but it wouldn't hurt for sure!

Maybe we don't need a reddit alternative? Maybe there are even better ways to structure a "free idea forum" idk the answer to these, just thinking out loud in the space.('cause I aint no dadgum robit).
