Maybe weird feedback but the COVID-19 Pandemic section on the front page really kills both the retro vibe and the idea that this might be something unique rather than yet another way for me to consume standard news.

#93Good idea. I think there’s a lot of room for some kind of internet social network that gives you a space for a custom profile, chatting with friends about anything, no algorithms dictating what you see, no heavy handed moderation, etc. wish you success

#94despite the opinion of some others here i _loved_ the old 2008 facebook. it's so sad how it all turned out 12 years later.

#95I bet you will get a job too. The same way that Hollywood is simply making remakes and people are accepting this as new. A Nuclear bomb would be nice right about now. Covid was not enough humble pie
Jesus dude, who crapped in your Cheerios this morning?

I live and breathe on the internet and have never been moderated once, even freely expressing myself, insulting people who deserve it, etc. My point here is that if you think the current social media options have "heavy handed" moderation, you're probably the problem, not them.
I think I've been modded for:
- trying to get people to hate less on Russians
- on the other hand, in the same forum: trying to tell some over eager people that no, Russians aren't saints and it isn't all NATOs fault.
- pointing out (as an insider that was supposedly one of the victims in a major news story recently) that the "facts" didn't check out at all.

That just means your views are not very controversial (most people’s aren’t). The argument you’re making is just a different face of the “I have nothing to hide” in the privacy debates.
