We should have places online where we can have meaningful interactions without worrying about our privacy and relationships being exploited for others' financial gain. Places that respect us and the communities we build, and help make them better instead of just trying to make them bigger.

It sounds like a Reddit clone, let's have a look...
ReplyDeleteI'll be trying it over the weekend (if the weather isn't too good, else gardening, copter flying and hiking ;-) and may know more at the start of the week.
ReplyDeleteI've been a member since June 2018. It's a good discussion site, generally, though with limitations.
