Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

someone tried starting a r/buttcoin replacement https://awful.systems/c/Buttcoin@kbin.social but it's basically dead

[–] locallynonlinear@awful.systems 10 points 1 year ago

Oddly, r/buttcoin is still doing well enough that it's one of the few places I still stop by on reddit. Can't say the same for any community still on twitter, dough.

I see I see. well the subreddit is fine, although I'm not a huge fan of going there and seeing slurs

[–] acausal_masochist@awful.systems 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

It would be nice to have a version here without the slurs. I can stand the obnoxious liberal takes, but there's a line somewhere.

definitely feel free to open an interest check thread for a new community — I’m not against the idea at all, and if there’s enough interest (and maybe a funny name suggestion) I’ll create it

i mean, the only name is buttcoin

[–] self@awful.systems 3 points 1 year ago

huh… nothing can actually, technically stop us from starting a buttcoin sub here, can it
