Do it [SchemeBBS]

Name: Anonymous 2015-05-25 10:11

Can we fucking wake up here sheeple? We need a SchemeBBS. We need to restore all of prog.db in it. This regex crap the admin does is no good right now for the job.

Rest assured I do not live in a third world country where the law is afraid of people speaking their mind politically (at least not yet). Your anti-Putin sentiments will be ``safe'' (and off-topic) on SchemeBBSTM.

the only way online communities can come together is under the almighty rule of a single individual / group of individuals

In the traditional meaning of 'online community', absolutely, and here's what you're missing: Someone has to pay for it. Someone has to own the hardware and be responsible for what's posted on it. Someone, somewhere, has to have their name on a bill where money was exchanged to keep the network on and the data center employees paid and the domain name registered. And yes, when someone else is paying for the hardware that runs the service you are using, they are the boss, full stop. Even with many distributed models this is still the case, because things like trackers are still necessary.

I'm not brainwashed, I'm realistic. Your hypothetical bohemian distributed BBS network doesn't exist for one, but even if/when it does, it will never see wide adoption (see twister, posted earlier in this thread), because people, normies if you will, don't care about any of this stuff enough to figure out how to run complicated/technical software just to ensure they aren't being ``censored''. These people don't want to understand what is happening between typing in ``www.reddit.com'' and being blasted with sweet, sweet memes.

I'll certainly run a node though. Maybe, just maybe, if we/you manage to make the system stupid-simple to install and use, more than 5 other people will run nodes too.
