I created an account on Ruqqus and another one here... I've been a user on Reddit for many years but it's becoming unbearable. Reddit always has had highs and lows, but it's really mostly lows now.

Ruqqus also under heavy DDoS recently. In fact they're down right now.

I'm so tired of the preachy politics era we live in. I really miss IRC but to be fair I'm just interacting with people much less. Not only platforms get lost, but people either vanish from conversations, or get radicalised, or just cocoon themselves and just keep a facade online.

There's a strong difference, but yes they are both two different strands of leftism sharing a large body of ideology. They are both also completely intolerant of discussing their basic tenets and quite illiberal in the classical sense. However I agree with them in something very important, and that is sex being a biological reality with major implications in society. That is the point of contention between GC and TRA.

Twitter also censors a lot of sites in several ways

yep the writing was on the wall already

hosting/payment channels are a serious vulnerability for Internet freedoms and although technically it can be worked around, in practice enough services and users are crowded out of these possible alternatives because of this pressure from the top

Acquistion of a dead subsaidit by Entropick in SaidIt

[–]muyuu 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

I think you should take the time to establish a procedure for the acquisition of "dead" subs because this you just said is IMO even more ad-hoc and arbitrary than reddit.

Two posts above you say that there is no procedure of acquisition nor will there be, then in this post you declare that you will uniquely put a moderator in charge, specifically in active subs that need moderation. All of this being entirely on your judgment.

The good news is that this has just been raised (ghost-town sub with a squatted name), and the scenario you mention is hypothetical. But I think it will be a reddit-esque shit-show if it comes to happen, and thus it's worth preventing.

PS: frankly I don't even know what dmt is supposed to be about, but squatting of good short names by inactive mods can potentially be a serious problem. Establishing some procedure could both solve this and prevent potential scenarios of perceived admin arbitrary power.

They have massive running costs. Some strategic advertising there makes a lot of sense, it certainly won't save their budget.

No, it's heinous whether you are an idiot or not, and it destroys trust in the police whether you are an idiot or not. Takes being a complete retard to think anecdotal cases where the police acts callously and then gets a pass don't cause unrest and wanton destruction, given the scale of evidence.

Probably, but it's heinous when it happens and when it's compounded with impunity it destroys the most basic trust required for policing society.

I've always ratpacked a lot but recently I'm trying to be more systematic. I go through fewer stuff because I store most of it and and categorise it as I go. It's always been the case that not-so-popular stuff just vanished sometimes. Recently, stuff gets deleted for partisan reasons but also retroactively altered or decontextualised, which is a lot more insidious.
