The potential for future growth being very limited, and people spending hundreds of dollars a year on the server (a price that will only go up) plus all the effort in posting content…

I see the reason to not continue here.

I really appreciate that you care to come over and tell us your position, and this is key for me:

This isn’t really an issue as far as content and engagement is concerned thanks to federation, but it does mean we’re a very small fish that can be easily killed if we get defederated. We’re not big enough to survive under our own content steam, so if you do join, please try to keep this in mind.

Basically, you may be forced to moderate, and to ban really confrontational, in your face sort of posts that are derogatory to avoid defed… Which is fair.

I think I may come over to your instance and participate in some stuff, all in godo faith, all with no slurs or name-calling, as that is against my religion. ’

I’ll probably get a totally diff useranme, though. Be unrecognizable. I actually did this when coming over to EH (some wolfballers will remmeber my original name; like 1-2 people may remember my Discussions name… I don’t fully remember my discussions name, lol.)

I also specifically really liked the reddit style format and thus the very nature of my posting will change in the new place lol

Not a bad thing but u know.

It’ll be different.

Kapow, honestly just got a little misty eyed for a minute. You are a champ. Just like master of balls.

Followed you on Nostr.

I know the admin and many other users have put a lot of time and effort here.

Let’s keep it up on Gab and Nostr.

BTW I have this weird thing where I don’t like to be super active on a dying site when the nostalgia is kicking me in the balls so expect a downturn in posts.

There is a point here because I am aware that famous internet personalities like Mustang Wanted have actually joined to fight in the Ukraine on behalf of Russia while also are opponents of Putin…

But it is the case here, IMO, where Navalny is supposed to more broadly support the Westernization of Russia and its membership in duh internashnul comunity or whatever, so I would suspect that Navalny is more astroturfed local opposition than is talked about.

But IDK.

Yes, they did, and I think they have tried to come up with long-term plans to keep funding Ukraine and NATO, which is not really the direction that they have wanted to actually go as a people at all.
