Hello everyone! I posted about a month or so ago about a new website for us. I decided to add an old school BB forum since Reddit has become unusable due to censorship. We have Lemmy, and it’s awesome! We simply need an exclusive area for us that are ND.

It’s ready for use while I tweak things. I’m also still working on the main website thedigitalaspie.com

I’m also still looking for writers/contributors and now moderators for the forum.

There is a dedicated board on the forum for suggestions and requests also.

Have you considered spinning up a lemmy instance?
