ITT We write a surrender note to the leftists

This sounds a lot like 8ch without global mods

Except Zig Forums is a single point of failure.

How can we make this federated site easy to access?

How hard is it to access any of these Mastodon instances? instances.social/list#lang=&allowed=&prohibited=&users=

Holy shit that's pretty damn close to what we were talking about. Except it's not anonymous

What can be changed to make this more popular

The sociopolitical orthodoxy of the West.

Do you mean a democratic republic?

I mean everything about the mold that births all of us. A free co-operative service like Mastodon (OStatus) supplanting Twitter would be quite a feat considering that the blue bird spends just under a billion dollars a year on getting people's attention. If by "more popular" you really just mean "more popular" then all you have to do is sign up to an instance, use it, invite your friends, build something attractive.

There needs to be a better filter before I recommend this to anyone non-anonymously.

Too much degenerate stuff on the front page--not to mention the current filter options make me paranoid realizing I could be put on a list for this site
