Voat actually used to be pretty decent, albeit with a very definite hard right leaning attitude. I went there when Reddit started to become the Democratic People's Republic of Reddit.

There was supposedly a DDOS attack over a post that cause puttitout (the owner/admin) to lock everything behind a login wall, and it started to go toxic hard right.

After a while I noticed even the normal stuff that showed up there was gone, and no one needs that much hate without any reason to explain it.

@SandiaMesa @realcaseyrollins There's also notabug.io, a (supposed) decentralized reddit-like that uses the old-but-not-really-old reddit frontend.
@realcaseyrollins @trf But the anal blue pills the media offers are sweet and addictive.
I just wanna go to the library and read

BTW all you wackos screeching (All cops are bad):

I double-dare you to never call 9-1-1 in your life.

What is the #CantillonEffect?

Its pretty simple. Those with first dibs on the newly-minted #cash get all the benefits.
So if I'm a #CEO with a #banker mate at the #Fed (aka #FederalReserve, a private entity) and they type some new #money into my bank account, I'll get the full benefit of that money.

As I spend it, the #inflation effect debases the currency's value and #assets simply go up in #price.

The #saver suffers.

Survey time! On what platform(s) do you use LibreOffice?

Uber driver told me he's not wearing a mask anymore because a policeman told him it's illegal because they can't recognize you when you're speeding

protest communication tool 

@realcaseyrollins @thraeryn IMO, yes. But Riot is more attractive than most #XMPP clients, so it may be as good. There's a couple of gotchas either way: users have to be in encrypted mode in one to one or specially created small multiuser chats. A big, public room--or an older one--may be unencrypted.

Hey, Fediverse!

Are you in the St. Louis, MO area?

Can you get a copy of the Evening Whirl and take some pics of the headlines for me?

That paper is its own damn thing, and I'm interested in its perspective on this current world.

Please boost!
