There's an encrypted chat room on Element where goats are gathering, lots of older ones too.

Element.io

#voatrefugees:matrix.org

Current subjects of conversation include creating a new site based on the same principles to carry on the legacy of Voat.

We already have Poal.co, Ramble.pw and Notabug.io, all based on Voat freee speech principles, I don´t understand why create a new website and not use one of those that already have users.

The search continues for many because the application of those principles isn't the same.

Screw Poal, AOU is a retard. I had to draw that conclusion after being called an alt & a shill the very first time i talked to him.

He'll break under pressure.

I tried that one. The idea behind Matrix is interesting, given is federation of servers, but one would really have to understand how the system works to actually be able to understand what secure comms constitute in that ecosystem. I guess, once you go self hosted, that would deliver quite a control, up to the point where someone starts complaining and drops the totality of the history within a complaint of political incorrectness.

And of course all kinds of settings come to bear, that may proof quite persistent.

At any rate, I tried to find this group and it is not available. Votepizzagatemain, though, is.

Weird, I'll ask Turdlord5000 if he changed anything.

Derram is setting up a bot to link it to Voar irc or something of the sort, it's just temporary anyways. A way to stay in contact & not lose sight of the older users.

It's now self hosted in a goats closet.

Matrix.goatpen.co

And there's work being done on integrating it with ruqqus hosted on the same hardware.

All I'm doing is bridging a few of the chats together, someone else is actually running the server.
