I always try to direct people to these alt tech platforms. Never gotten anyone to come… But I think that this will change as censorship and control of information grows tighter.
The thing I am most concerned about is beating the censors and the general thrust against human rights and democracy.
This site is so small, but it represents the effort at decentralizing and spreading out how we communicate and taking it out of the hands of not just government censorship, but also out of the hands of oligarchs that have means of canceling and waging economic warfare on people IRL.
To me, this is no longer about left/right or any kind of identity, it’s about those who really value freedom qua freedom and those who are supporters of soft totalitarianism, either wittingly or unwittingly.
