Hmm, you mean notabug? https://notabug.io/

Interesting. Seems active too.

There's also tildes: https://tildes.net/ (I tried googling them and they're nowhere to be found. Ironically /r/tildes popped up before the actual site did.)

And lobsters: https://lobste.rs/

"To clarify:

notabug.io is a decentralized Reddit alternative that uses open source html/css from Reddit but whole new backend.

Snew.notabug.io is an anti censorship Reddit client that also uses open source html/css from Reddit but uses Reddit’s APIs and pushshift.io"

I think that it's somehow distinct from NAB.

It just gives you ~everything that got posted to Reddit.

Which is very useful for research purposes. And it fixes another Reddit defect, wherein it won't display full comment history, unless you're logged in.

Tildes feels like Reddit used to. it's just low on new content at the moment. More users would be good.

I was very interested in Tildes, especially because their commitment to privacy and staying independent of investors. However, Deimos + potentially other admins are far too liberal with their moderation for my taste.

Not every network has to be a bastion of free speech, but being closed minded and erasing entire discussions that they don't like is a great way to build an echo chamber.

I wish a remember more of the context, but I had bookmarked this page[0] because it was an interesting discussion on this matter. As you can see, it's been nuked.

I was thinking about seeking an invitation, but that totally turns me off. I hate reading spam, trolling and insane gibberish. Unless it's amusing, or thought provoking, anyway. But I also hate moderation by deletion or editing, especially if it's ideological and extreme.

I like the HN approach, generally. Even people who have gotten themselves shadowbanned can still post, and interesting comments can be vouched. And there's redemption with consistent evidence of constructive posting.

Ideally, though, I like distributed systems, where content is persistent and irrevocable. But with multiple portals, each with its own standards, and portal-specific moderation. And additionally, giving users the tools to filter, based on posters, topics, keywords, time, etc.

Anyway, about the URL, archive.org has no snapshots, and just tells me that it's available. But perhaps someone has archived it, and will post a link.
