It’s similar to Lemmy, but it’s P2P and the channels aren’t centralized like here so to speak. So we may join channels external to socialism but also create socialist ones which can be modded.

The dangerous thing may be relying on P2P exposition, instead of relying on the authority of a central server (although some may consider this an advantage, since if the owners are corrupted everything comes down).

So what do you think?

    Is that under development again? I remember trying it years ago, but then it was discontinued somehow.

    Anyway it might be similar to Lemmy in that they are both Reddit alternatives, but there is a huge difference between p2p and federation. Both have their advantages and disadvantages, things are already hard with federation, but p2p is even more complicated, especially for nontechnical users. So I think our approach is more effective in the near future.

      I didn’t see the previous development but there are still a few active posts.

      This one is easy you install it and you get going. But it’s an app and not in the browser, plus you have to join the specific socialist channels manually.

      However… “It keeps 6 months of posts by default. It’s gone after. If something is worth keeping, someone will save it within six months — but not from beyond that.”
