This is what early stage communism looks like. It will be accerated rapidly in the coming years. The left are going to lock down conservative or even non leftist speech everywhere they can find it.
This is what's so weird to me. what, like 10k would build a balls to walls handle all normal traffic server? That's tiny for a business trying to secure their future.
All these conservatives bitching about getting de-platformed, but nobody has made a freespeech style wordpress.
They can’t revoke the license (last time I looked). They can change their license and block them from future upgrades. Running it yourself removes them from any perceived liability. Yes, it means you have to worry about keeping it running but you at least didn’t have to build it.
WordPress is an open source CMS platform written in PHP. The code is all public. Anyone can use it. Setting up your own WordPress server from scratch with no technical know-how, however, would be a nightmare
But the thing is that you're responsible for the complete and total security of it at that point. Self-run WP sites - especially the ones that run a lot of 3rd party modules - get smoked all the time, WP is notoriously shitty in its security. It's almost a full-time job keeping it safe and secure.
Granted, this is probably the best immediate option forward while something more long-term is determined, unless CTH were to get someone strong in the InfoSec field, that is.
agreed: they could just run WP on their own server. you've really got to know what you're doing to keep WP secure. source: me. I ran a top 500 (alexa ranking) site for 4 years that ran wotdpress. it's a piece of shit.
I mean if that's what it takes, that's what we should do.
They've started minibanks to make purchasing weed easier, and you're telling me we can't do it for freedom?
More do nothing conservatism. This is why we lost up until Trump.
You fuckers never ask yourself, "How do I do this?"
You always start with "This isn't even possible. I haven't thought about it at all. I just know I can't do it. And because I can't, there's not a single other person in this 6 billion people world that can do anything I can't. It's hopeless."
Some low energy, low self-esteem, defeatist bitches in here.
It's what white South Africans ended up having to do after the ANC took over. And looking at how many banks are going all in on "diversity" bullshit, I'd say you're absolutely right, we do need our own banking.
I'm trying to imagine a bunch of guys at ebay sitting around saying "I don't know, it's it okay to build our own money system?" No one gave anyone permission to build PayPal, they just built it. Stop waiting for someone else to solve problems. Be high energy and go solve them.
The upvote/downvote ratio is probably a good indicator of the ratio of "internet users" to "people who actually know how to run services on the internet".
Just get a fucking server going, its not rocket science.
To some people it is.
They should hire the IT guy who got Bidens laptop!
Clinton’s servers
Yea host there. Ain’t nobody doing shit to that.
Still though they should host on friendly servers.
Same as outsourcing medicine to China.

True but not so important. There are more than enough people who can help.
Then hire someone who knows rocket science.

Wordpress is free to use with your own install
correct.

There are so many security plugins and services for Wordpress.. one example would be Wordfence which is only $100 a year.

Maybe we should be making our own banks.
All I see is the cat with glasses looking over the top of the newspaper meme.
Eh, I made it. https://i.maga.host/bJxIdMo.png
Citizens First Bank gave money to only republicans in 2020. There are few other right leaning banks out there. Suntrust Bank is another one.
We are probably going to have to make our own everything pretty soon. I say sooner the better.
I've been arguing for conservatives doing this for 30 years.

You got any info on those minibanks? Knew there were issues with banking/Marijuana but never heard of that.

There already is.. just use wordpress.org instead of wordpress.com. Then you have complete control over your website. This is such an easy fix.
And Remember go old school, dont use marxist controlled advertising middlemen, direct ads sells from the companies only (if using advertising sales).
Then they come after your internet provider. It never ends until we are silenced.
I assume, you never got "a fucking server going" for a public web service, that got 500k-1mill unique visitors?

yes :)
It took me weeks to figure out how to run a server...
