The site's name is changing because some people want to impress other people who are scared away by the mere mention of a podcast. I don't know why we wouldn't also consider the perceptions of those same people when deciding whether to associate the site with drugs and drug use, given that we're already making such large charges with them in mind.
I thought the site's name change was to move away from chapo because they're pretty lib? My point is that drug discussion comes up in main and if people want to get rid of main, where does that go? Like you said there's other sites but we're potentially driving people away to get scooped up by libs or reactionaries by not allowing discussion here.
I wonder if the drugs comm is going to attract or repel the kinds of people that were changing the site name for.
I don't see that having much bearing on the subject, the site's name is pretty irrelevant to the discussions here.

Good point about main going away, actually. Yeah that'll change things.
