I think he means that there are less and less participant supporters

Oddly, my conservative friends go 50-50 on Ukraine. The local Democrat HQ has a sign supporting Ukraine along with several dozen for the narrative of the month.

“I love the platform. the best for short answers or long interesting conversations. I pray that the back rooms get upgraded while the WYSIWYG stay the same. With perhaps a yes no or ability to respond to the whole thread.

Tell me wasn’t there a visit counter to the threads back in the day???”

I don’t know about a visit counter. Haven’t seen that. But I don’t think pressuring the owners to “make changes” by a few is a good idea. If the owners wanted to make changes, they could always post it as a poll and get users to vote yes or no. Otherwise, it’s moot. It has worked well for many years like it is, right? Leave it be, IMHO.

I think you can rule out the long term monthly donors. Some of us take a break from time to time but keep the monthly going.

A few became gay.

I thought they were born gay.

Two factor authentication can also be accomplished by sending to an email address, however, this is less secure. Still, better than nothing.

HATE two factor. HATE is not a strong enough word.

Well from what I am reading in this thread, if the idea is to get rid of trolls then EVERYONE is a troll. Because every user here has several others they label and consider as trolls because they do not think in the box exactly like they want them to think. So if all the “trolls” were banned there would be no one left...

Cause everyone here is a troll to someone else here from what it looks like.

This site is now in the Cloud

I thought they were using their own hardware at a hosting center. If so, that's not cloud.

Hey there old friend... Haven’t talked to you in awhile. Hope you have been well.

Not anymore, it is a misconception. When they “moved the server” it went to 3rd party hosting with a cloud server provider.

I’ve noticed curious postings and I believe there is something more going on here.

I’ve also noticed what to me at least has the appearance of AI generated responses.

Hold on; I'll take care of it.

“If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it?”

That has always been my ‘go-by’.

And if it does break, DIY it (the least expensive way possible). Hey, we ‘broke folks’ have to do what we gotta do any way we can.
