"Last I checked (haven’t been on in over 24 hours, probably won’t come back at all for a while because it’s a horrible place to be at the moment, I have actually uninstalled Aether for the time being) there were 120-something comments in the thread, the majority of which from people who were openly racist, many of which containing racist, homophobic or antisemitic slurs."
That kind of faggotry just makes we want to trash niggers and jews more. In fact, it was probably a kike, nigger, troon, faggot with a festering ax wound that made that limp wristed comment.
Aether vs Aether's Webpage For those unfamiliar with Aether, the screenshot in the post is on Aether's support forum/webpage, where you can e.g. log bugs or download the client. Aether is the client and its network: https://getaether.net (You can retrieve the same client from unofficial sources, e.g. using i2p on MuWire.) I hope you get hold of a client, even if only to archive it.
Free Speech One advantage of Aether over Voat is that nobody can stop you saying what you want there, not even the maintainer, as is mentioned in this screenshot. In theory, people here could be arbitrarily banned. Aether doesn't have that weakness.
Funny There is a quite wide political spectrum of people on Aether. There are often clashes between opposing sides. It is fun to see, and one reason it is possible is because of Aether's moderation system.
Voat During Voat's last invasion, as far as I am aware, not a single post was removed. If you want to visit, /b/Voat is here: aether://board/f2c944108971c509c3718a43e8bc77d95d3591746241b6a490e537f00122d98d
Weak* Do you seriously think that the current platform here, centralized, vulnerable and opaque as it is, is a strong and enduring solution for Voat's community? Why do you allow yourself to rest here? Is it because you are just tired of changing platform? I can understand that. Is it because you are, in truth, more of a follower than a leader? That would be human nature.
There is a strong solution offered here. If you haven't examined the engineering decisions behind Aether yet, please don't be lazy or neglectful or wilfully ignorant.
This link is to the support forum. Discussion that is actually on Aether about Voat is here: aether://board/f2c944108971c509c3718a43e8bc77d95d3591746241b6a490e537f00122d98d
Ah the account that's spending tonight stirring shit up and downvoting people trying to have an actual discussion. I assume you're paid min. wage to do this? What a life. I won't respond to you anymore. But please, respond to me and help me keep this high in the last responded que.
