From what I understand the site is full of softies. Power users are announcing they are going to Parler, subs from Reddit are scared of getting banned so they need a new space and it's an abrasive situation. A mod for r/acidmarxism had some disparaging words about this project as well as the discord and I fear he is right. Beatnik is still out there somewhere and I hope he is doing well...
Our member numbers have been growing at a quicker rate but I have no idea if it's just the same folks making new accounts.
And no one is actually going to Parler, I'm just making the connection that these announcements about leaving chacha are one in the same. Which is what the folks at r/acidmarxism were taking issue with. This in an online forum, having thick skin is almost a prerequisite to being terminally online. I agree that is sucks and I want it to change, but I also expect leftists need to be prepared for these fights.

Has there been a recent influx of users from the dogfood sub that got banned?
Why would hexbear powerusers go to parler?
This feels like that office scene where someones like "what i miss?" and the response is like "so and so is dead and we had a funeral for a bird"
