least bloodthirsty radlib
some interesting posts they've made:
"Would [writing] a torture scene be too gratuitous?"
"[My] main antagonist Samantha is Pure Evil. She is incredibly sadistic, and believes that she has a right to rule over humanity due to her being a demon. She has similar powers to Superman, with the addition of shapeshifting and a healing factor. What I am also trying to do is make her funny, like the Joker"
I have two issues with that.
It's really bad for growth and my belief that this site can and will grow once it's past certain issues is the main reason I'm still here.
It's much less practical. Everything I've ever favourited is gone and some of that stuff was super useful for quoting and using in other places online.
A lot of us aren't doing any kind of opsec at all because we don't hide ourselves offline either. I am a communist everywhere I go, I hide nothing.
for random fash that want to do me harm, i'm extremely difficult to find as i have a ludicrously common name, to the point that when i google my full legal name and the town i've lived in for most of my life, none of the results are me
for the pigs, they already know exactly who i am, and i'm on the membership rolls of a couple of lefty orgs and an ml party
so hiding myself online seems a little pointless tbh

Yea I didn’t expect that to be a particular popular take. I wasn’t ecstatic about it initially or anything but I’ve kinda grown to like it as a little neat unique feature.
I don’t necessarily think it has to have an effect on growth especially if people go in expecting stuff is gonna get time walled. I mean Chan style sites have large user bases and it’s baked in that things 404 eventually.
Ultimately whatever everyone wants tho, I’m not really bothered either way
It has an effect on growth because it essentially excludes us from search engines, we would show up a lot given that leftist topics don't have a huge presence online. For perspective 45% of reddit's traffic is driven by search engine results. Search engines are the most common source of visitors for all sites.
Chan grew on notoriety and edginess among a teenager target audience through pranks, hacks and raids. Shifting gears to boomers through q anon shit and the like. The audience here has demonstrated unwillingness to engage in that kind of petty activity, I don't think they will do the kind of thing that's needed to get that discussion going, it is funny to say but I think the site maturity level is too high. Also porn. A lot of porn.
we did have some fun raids on the chanfash pixel map thing in the early days
shame that stuff has fallen by the wayside

yeah it is impractical, I sometimes fav shit and forget about it, only to consult it at an arbitrary point in the future and find it gone. Some music recommendations are gone and I'm kinda sad about it. I understand why this happens, but it's still sad ngl
