We don’t need to go more modern, we need to go retro! 💪

Well, he’d be bringing business there as well, so it’s also a gesture toward Canada. Kind of like what happens in the free market but at the level of nation states. Peterson is rich enough not to be too severely inconvenienced by this.
Short-term solutions should partially be stoicism at the individual level, accompanied by an international support group. If we form stronger bonds and aim to take our world back, it’ll be bearable to suffer losses in the here and now, because friendship with other people with integrity remind us that it was correct not to stoop.
It can be seen as a test. Basically, the Christian model of taking up one’s cross and welcoming persecution is the right one. I’m just talking about Christian values, by the way, and not about a literal understanding of the gospel. God can be taken to represent higher ideals in general. We should believe in those and be willing to make sacrifices for them.
The problem is that you’re stooping to their level if you do that. The noble thing to do is to stay above it.
I’m considering switching to either Lemmy or Kbin. The latter is also nice for integrating microblogging and boosts. One problem however is that votes can easily be manipulated. I feel like at one point it would have to default to a chronological sorting of comments, to mitigate manipulation.
There isn’t a dedicated app, but it can be accessed from a web browser. How is that experience for you?
Come join Rabbit Hole. It’s a PhpBB forum where I bring people from various conspiracy-related forums together. There’s no federation, but you can guest post even from Tor, so the barrier to participation is as low as it gets.
Since many are expressing disappointment in this site going down, can I take this opportunity to promote my forum, Rabbit Hole? It’s a simple phpBB forum that supports free speech, allows guest posting from Tor, and aggregates the content on the landing page. I’m afraid many won’t make the transition to Nostr and the community will fall apart. I made RH partially as a Saidit alternative, since that site has many problems. However, it hasn’t taken off. Saidit still works so people seem to be sticking to it in spite of the flaws. If this community migrates there, there will be enough activity to make it more appealing for other users to join and I can more easily advertise it on a couple of related communities. My goal is to combine the conspiracy / freedom niche with imageboard culture and an imageboard-like design (but using phpBB for the extra features).
I look like God.
