We’re going to need to participate on normie platforms like reddit in order to get more users & content here. We’re also going to want to have a place on reddit (and elsewhere) where some of our content can thrive and become more accessible.
Apparently, Facebook is already marking our URL as spam. I’d imagine reddit will follow if not already. So we can’t just dump links onto every marginally left-wing space.
Let this be a thread to spitball some ideas.
This mirrors my thinking. If we want to be more than just dank edgy memes, we’re going to need more users to keep the more niche comms afloat and active enough to be worth using for organizational purposes.
I suspect most people are currently using this place as I do: as a place for cool, dank lefty memes and almost exclusively browsing c/main. It would be nice to be able to organize efforts to poison fascist organizing, bring awareness for regional events, and manipulate the online media sphere.
4chan has basically done similar shit for years. I see no reason why we can’t have a similar role, but with better goals. It really doesn’t take a huge number of people to accomplish great things if properly organized. We already have decent numbers, it’d be a shame if the only thing we did with this is shitpost.
