/news for general news

/sports for general sports

/tech for general tech

/gaming for general gaming

/etc for etcetra, off-topic shitposting

We could expand the list as demand emerges.

They all need to be free-speech boards where you can say whatever you like about those topics. This will allow us to attract more users that want more than just T_D, and will let us poach users from other boards such as reddit.

I'll gladly steal and repost shit from reddit to help seed the boards with content, but we cannot just have one main board, because people need a space where they can discuss just more than one topic.

I think allowing users to create tons of "subwins" would be a mistake, instead I think it would be better to just have very loose rules around a small number of general purpose boards, so people can cross pollinate and share various ideas and topics within the same space.

Yes, definitely this. Maybe /2A or /guns. Something like that.

This would be great, but the other boards should be kept strictly MAGA-spirit or else degenerates will take over with degenerate content.

If we've been booted from reddit

We should just build our own with free speech and integrity

Personally I don't think it's necessary. The front page can just encompass it all, and whatever people are interested in will rise to the top.

That's pretty much how reddit T_D worked. People posted on a whole range of issues. Sure it almost always was related to politics and culture in some way, but that's what we're here for.

Ya, but I don't want to shit up the board with information about tons of off-topic content. I want off-topic content, I don't want to go back to reddit, but I don't want to shit up our main board.
