Reddit's /r/KotakuInAction2 has today launched their Win community, adding to their two existing backup sites.

The community describes itself as:

Dedicated to promoting ethics in journalism, and opposing censorship and political correctness.

It is now available at KotakuInAction2.win

A full list of communities is available here.

I love the feeling of actual identity each community has since the sites are separate. It should make communities tighter over time and cause less homogeneity.

Unfortunately, giving each community their own .win seems like only a temporary solution. Other domains are going to be bought/parked/used, or account data will be gathered on fake .win sites. There was already some confusion, as I'd seen people discussing KotakuInAction2.win's legitimacy before the official announcement. Additionally, I imagine the cost of all these domains is reeeeally going to add up if the .win network is intended to grow large.

I'm in favor of a unified site (ie: thedonald.freedom.win, communityx.freedom.win). BUT, unlike reddit, I put forth this: have no "front page". The front page could instead be a link to communities and a tool to find suggested communities. Otherwise, leave it blank. This would mostly keep communities separated and maintain the independence of each community while unifying the network and foiling potential security risks.
