A few days later…

I reused the username I originally used when I moved to Ruqqus 3 years ago. I’ve been all over the place ever since, and I’ve seen many of these alternatives inevitably fall. Ruqqus, Voat, Votal, Syzitus, Saidit is somehow still active.

It may be something new to many of you, but at this point I’ve seen enough sites shut down. I don’t mean to come here with bad vibes, but it’s not easy to be optimistic anymore.

I still miss Ruqqus from time to time, despite not sharing the opinions of a good portion of their user base, I never had a bad experience, even though I did pock the hornet’s nest a few times.
