I rather like this trend of conservatives and their like piling up the mainstream social media, leaving the decentralization and smaller medias to those with more progressive thinking.

It feels like things are upside down when I see it happen the other way around.

I'd consider myself conservative. I'd say they were going to alternate platforms long ago. That was everyone's complaint about all the so-called alternatives is that they leaned heavily right.

Not even sure how r/conservative was allowed to live. Many are misreading their intentions about staying open during the blackout. They want to just not moderate and let everyone go hogwild so it looks like shit. Still proves the point that reddit leaves and breathes by users and moderators goodwill. I prefer the blackout and don't use it method though and that's why I'm here.
