    We need a US Community on Revolt too not just Lemmy

    Never heard of it before.

    What’s the elevator pitch?

      Alright here

      • Reddit➡️Lemmy
      • Twitter➡️Bluesky
      • Discord➡️Revolt

      https://revolt.chat/

      Its an even better thing than Discord.

      (They have an alternativeto.net entry that explains a lot more about them too. Also, AlternativeTo is a great resource to find more open-source (But you have to check online if it’s community-made or corporation owned) platforms/apps/websites/etc to switch to. Recommend using that too)

      Positives:

      • Values Privacy, Community, Collaboration, Discussions, & Freedom
      • Open-Source
      • Community-Made
      • Allow you to have different profile pics per community you are in
      • Can use bots without needing Premium
      • There’s more once you use it to experience it and read their site

      I say we make a U.S. Server on there to inform each other, inspire each other, take action, collaborate, & coordinate

      That would be a great way for all of us to really get things going in real life & online. Also, to have different sections of the server dedicated to various issues:

      • This whole mess with GOP fighting back on every level
      • Making Protests Fun, & Effective. Connecting Social Events to Them, & having Goals for Each Protest (Get to know others to work with, building out better infrastructure, gettings things done, etc)
      • Homelessness
      • Walkable/social/fun/bikeable/transit infrastructure for cities and towns
      • Building and Maintaining Community
      • Collaboration with Allies
      • Etc Etc

      I would do it but don’t know how to run a community, & server
