@ryo Some other fedi user mentioned it earlier, but it's really embarrassing that LibLeft Unix trannies are hosting shit on their own self hosted sites while many of the AuthRight and LibRight folks (the ones who actually get deplatformed by big tech) are using inferior, centralized (or fake decentralized) platforms that are cuckflared, hosted on AWS, and/or are relying on APIs from Big Tech like ReCaptcha or Google Analytics. And these freeze-peach platforms just end up cucking out eventually.
@xianc78 @ryo My read is that the right leaning folks only take up tech matters out of necessity (from being banned constantly) rather than from an innate interest in tech. The UNIX trannies, with their hilariously typically hyper-masculine brains, of course have spent years tinkering in software so none of this is surprising to me.
@ryo @wrongthink Telegram is especially egregious because I've heard that many agorists are doing counter-economic trading on there of all places. I better hope that these people signed up using burner phones because God knows if Telegram will start reporting shit to the IRS (or their nation's equivalent).
>Also, most of the right leaning folks tend to be boomers, while the left leaning folks are typically millenials.
Well, I have no sympathy for the boomercons and MAGAtards. They keep on falling for shitty scams but they never learn. They only hear about these alt-tech platforms because their favorite AM radio host mentions it (the talk show host my conservative dad listens to constantly shills Rumble as THE free speech platform), but I expect more from the younger "dissident right" crowd, but it seems like they don't know much about tech outside of video production and building/upgrading gaming PCs. The closest thing to self-hosting they could ever do is run a Minecraft server.
@ryo @wrongthink
>all I got in return was "TEEHEE!! How do you think we would ever attract an audience on self hosted garbage!? LULZ!!".
That's why you host exclusive content on there. Styxhexenhammer, despite being a total retard and unworthy of the "libertarian" label, hosts bonus videos exclusively on his alt-tech accounts. Just do the same but on your own site.
But when they do have their own sites, it's always some shitty WordPress, Wix, or Squarespace garbage with Big Tech APIs (I think most Wordpress themes have them) and it's usually just links and/or a front-end for their merch store. For the love of God, HTML isn't that hard. You can even download HTML+CSS templates (just check for any Big Tech JS/CSS). You're not writing a program, you're just hosting document files on a computer connected to the internet. Unless you're also making a back-end for the site, it's not that complicated.
>Also, MAGAtards are just AuthRight
I know, but my point is is that everyone who wants to host content should try to self-host, regardless of political ideology.
@PhenomX6 @wrongthink @ryo You can just list your links on a pastebin or on txti.es if you want to be that simple. I know a lot of them have those kind of sites because they purchased a custom domain for business emails and they decided that they might as well have a website too but don't know what to put on there so they just put links to all their profiles.
