About 2 years ago. We used to be called antiextremes.com way back in the beginning, alluding to avoiding the extremes of voat on one side on the censorship extremes of reddit on the other. There's more info here: https://infogalactic.com/info/SaidIt#Site

We used the name antiextremes for about 6 months before changing names.

Neat. Different user name? You're the first IG person I've met on SaidIt.

I'm likely going to start my own mediawiki site for my non-encyclopedic projects, and/or mirror/migrate to WikiSpooks.

A big problem going forward is that saidit is going to become a refuge for banned redditors. But these are going to be the extremists. How can we get more normie content on saidit instead of incels and ice_posideon? I want it to be a respectable place where reddit can't reach. Their censorship is getting worse and worse.

Their censorship is getting worse and worse.

There's the solution to the problem. More centrists will come as reddit gets more extreme with its banning. Saidit is bound to go through multiple cultural shifts as the audience changes and grows.

I'm not an extremist and I recently joined Saidit. Politically, I'm a moderate independent and I score in the center on political compass tests.

The Leftists dominating much of Reddit hate, censor and ban reasonable, credible people as they do anyone else not in lockstep with their narratives.

Now that I'm beginning to trust and appreciate Saidit more, a few days ago I offered a link to it on Reddit, but like you, I'm a little concerned who might show up.

I know that as I increasingly found Reddit unacceptable, I subscribed to r/Banned, r/WatchRedditDie, r/RedditAlternatives and similar subs from which I learned of Saidit, so that's where I reccomended it. I think people who recognize Reddit's problems are probably a good fit, generally.

I left reddit bc it's fucking insulting anymore. Probably was before but I barely used it since conspiracy began to fall to the dark side. I loved reddit when conspiracy outing pieces of shit hit the front page and everybody was like yea fuck you!

Things like the boston bombing didn't help but lmao did officials actually use reddit as their own research? Surprisesed the bad cop no donut isn't banned yet.

I have some posts on the fake boston bombing. If you want to take a look. Lots of intelligence agents during the drill.

I seen it, used to watch that peekay guy. He was kinda dumb but the footage was great. MY bad, If you outline the posts I'd love to take a gander though.

Peekay was an actor. I kid you not. He was a controlled opposition and has been featured in the film 'The Knowing' with Nicolas Cage and on variosu Australian game shows.

Plasmaburns is a real researcher who has exposed every player involved. It took him years to do so, and he still does it today.

SO is plasmaburns you?

So basically, normal.com? Would you consider this a business idea or a hobby? Would you consider it failing or thriving? The idea is rock solid though, and the name change was a good idea.
