You don't need to. But I've made a ton of these threads, and what inevitably happens is that people drift out of contact. I feel like a lot of people get excited about a boycott, upvote the thread, leave a comment or two, and then forget about it. You can't run an effective boycott that way.

The chatroom is a way to keep people involved and connected, even across platforms. For example, I've posted this thread on Ruqqus as well. Normally SaidIt and Ruqqus are totally separate communities, but a chatroom can bring them together for an important project like this.

The chatroom is based on the open-source Matrix protocol btw, using the Riot client, both of which are very popular and respectful of user privacy.

Cool, let me know if you have any issues joining. If it doesn't work, I also have a sub at /s/Activism which I'm trying to get started. Thanks!
