Yeah chapo.chat really is great. I think this site has done a really good job at keeping some of the best aspects of the subreddit while getting rid of its worst excesses.
Most complaints about chapo.chat I've seen stem from the idea that we take ourselves too seriously; that we believe posting is praxis or something. But I haven't seen much of that personally, at least not at levels any worse than what was going on with the subreddit.
The biggest difference is that we prioritize the concerns of our marginalized comrades more than the subreddit did. Would definitely rather stick with that than return to the irony-poisoned culture of the old subreddit.
the us prioritizing concerns of the marginalized and taking things too serious are connected for them, in my view.
there are people who just dont vibe with doing things online or whatever and i respect that but most of those throwing that around usually are ironically detached terminally online dinguses that ended up outing themselves as class reductionists later and just think we're taking things to seriously by actually giving a shit instead of just shitposting "borderline" racist and ableist jokes all day.
on rebros twitter they posted up there, he's making fun of our logo and someone was like "hue hue the last one was banned for being to ableist" lol yea, sorry the community isn't a fan of people coming here and throwing the r-slur around casually. youre so cool.
Yeah posting as praxis is seen as a fun in-joke rather than an actual dogma which is good. That's what I love about it here, that we boost the voice of our marginalized comrades.

Keeping the best bits while discarding the more problematic chaff.
