Let’s see, in terms of ML spaces, we have:

-Lemmygrad

-The subreddits on Reddit

-bunkerchan

-Quora (for certain places)

-Discord

-Twitter

-Facebook

-Certain YouTube channels

Anything else I’m missing? I’m thinking of making another community for now in preparation for when there’s a crackdown on one of these communities, whether it’s the BeardTube community, the comrades on Twitter, or Reddit.

Thoughts?

    I think this is enough tbh, the only other possibility I’d like to see is another communism subreddit (/r/communism has been on a tankie banning spree lately, the mod team is dominated by a few MLMs). /r/informedtankie already serves as a good 101 sub probably, and has a large user base. Lemmygrad (maybe bunkerchan too?) are the only ones not hosted by big tech, but we don’t need to split energy in having too many alternatives.

    What could probably be interesting is a distributed instance of lemmygrad. I say lemmygrad because I don’t want to join yet another website lol.

    But you know, anyone (or not anyone, but select people) could host lemmygrad on their own server and in case one instance goes down you get redirected to another so it never really dies. If all die just grab the last backup you can find and rehost it whenever, even on your own homemade server if you want.

    Of course this is easy to say and it’s probably a year of frustrating labour to make it a reality lol.

      We make backups every 4 hours, so if anything goes down, much won’t be lost and it’ll be very simple to resurrect. If anyone wants to help do that I could probably share a syncthing folder.

        wow! that makes for a lot of backup!

    Friendly reminder, bunkerchan is now leftypol.org due to drama between the site owner and the moderators.
