We could start another saidit-like site for more normie content, where extremist content is banned even more rigorously than here. But people will say it's full of censorship, which will be required to keep the content from having any extremism, so I'm not sure it'd catch on. But it might be worth a try. I wouldn't mind having a couple different saidit-like sites with different rules, I mean we already have the software in place to do this very easily.

What I'm talking about is a site like Reddit pre-November 2016. Where people can post whatever, and nobody really cares. You don't like it, unsubscribe or block the channel. Political, normie, it's all good.

But all politics is going to scare off the normies and we'll never get that old Reddit back.

That's exactly what this website is... exactly.

Not sure what to change other than posting better stuff (but I can't carry the culture of the website on my back alone, I need help from others posting quality things) and maybe deleting some political stuff, and I don't like deleting stuff. I don't see any other options, do you?

We must figure out a way to attract normies and then not scare them away with extremism.
