Are there still any plans to move off-site or is the dream dead?

    What work is there to be done? Is Aevann not offering hosting anymore?

    Not going with Aevann anymore, turned out to be troublesome due to poor communication, no future help with maintenance and being unable to have complete faith in him as a host. Like another user said, he should probably stick to hosting drama sites. rDrama is good for what it is.

    For the work, I imagine they've got a lot of it ahead of them. They either have to make or find a front-end that works for us, plus all the back-end stuff that you and I will never see, and also research things to help keep the new host anonymous.

    Ok, you're all idiots and I think I'm done with bothering to check on this sub. A capybara gave you a free site with free hosting and that isn't good enough apparently. This sub is dead, no one uses saidit and it's been private for months. The movement is dead and any so is any momentum. Good job.

    The movement is dead

    Just like you didn't bother to read the comments on the last post on this topic, you also don't read the news. LGBDropTheT was trending on Twitter not long ago, if you're really that bent out of shape over the Saidit, go there.

    I'm not staff, I just took the time to explain what happened to you. Don't shoot the messenger.

    I'm sorry, what was free?

    Right, just name-call, real mature. If it's so dead here then why are you here?

    r/lgbdropthet had close to 20k people in it when it was banned. Many people are (reasonably) wary of Saidit as a platform, so it's not surprising that few came to Saidit. Once we have our own site up and running, people won't be so off-put.

    And that "free site with free hosting" 1. wasn't free and 2. the people in charge of it were already flooding the place with trolls before our own users even had access. We would've been talked over by them over there, too. It doesn't make sense to work with people who are already acting in bad faith. There were details about this posted in the previous mod thread.

    Dude, I don't know what your deal is, but if you need one, here's a hug. Go take a walk and find a stranger to be nice to today. Maybe be nice to yourself too while you're at it.
