1 Would you want it to be an exact copy of LGBDroptheT but on a different platform or would you like it more geared/focused on LGB?

Definitely more focused on LGB, both as a whole and individually. The opposition to the QT movement is very important, but shouldn't be the main focus.

2 What type of platform would you be interested in for a backup group?(ex. Forums, Discord, Microsoft teams, Mastodon, Facebook, or another reddit/saidit copy but built specifically for the LGB, similar to how Ovarit is for Radfems & women, etc)

Using proprietary software is incredibly dangerous, it just makes it easy for the tech companies that have jumped on the TRA bandwagon to shut down dissident voices.

That said, would prefer something like a along the lines of a modern forum (yes I know I'm showing my age by saying that).

Something like VanillaForums or TalkYard, something that will lead to a stronger community and change.

5 Would you prefer the backup to be open to public, restricted-access(ex. Cannot view content unless an account is made), or invite-only to register and view platform?

Completely depends on the topic involved. For instance life discussions might be inappropriate to have publicly viewable, but it would be silly to have memes hidden behind a login screen.

Woah, those are some pretty neat forums! It's also rad that it is open-sourced. I'm rather old school myself and like forums format the most. I'm still trying to adapt to these other types of platforms. Discord is pretty interesting with the channels and adding bots. The only thing I don't like is their privacy policy...Though, I went ahead and tried them out under a throwaway email and info etc and I kinda like discord. Wish there was a open-sourced, private version of it. Wondering if Wire or Riot is similar or not? Haven't really used them, just use Signal.

That makes sense in regards to what content is public and what isn't. Curious if there's a way to hide certain forum sections depending on content and allow others to be public?
