A few of the things I like about it: Has a "Exemplary" label for labeling high quality content . You can only label one every eight hours, so it acts kind of like a "super upvote". Can show comments that were not read. When visiting a post, it can show you comments added since the last visit, this can make it easier to read all the comments on a post you care about. You can subscribe on RSS to tags, so you can get a RSS notification whenever someones submits a post that includes the tag "cooking" for example. You can also put a "label" on users (basically a text that appears next to the name) so you can write if it is maybe not worth it to debate with a user or if he is particularly knowledgable about certain topics . for example he maintains a open source project (but you need to download the firefox addon "Tildes ReExtended" for that) . one disadvantage is that you can't downvote users (basically provide negative feedback) and it felt at times this might make people overconfident (kinda felt like facebook). But overall i feel like the quality of content on it on average is higher then other reddit alternatives.

Kinda shitty that its and invite only and there isnt really a way to contact anyone to see you you can be invited.

Replying to @jrgalaxytaba1

There is also a email address you can use to request a invite on their contact page: https://docs.tildes.net/contact

xenmaster's free speech catalog

Either as havens for the deplatformed or as open source self-hosted solutions to those who don't want to put their community in the hands of the google and facebook behemoths, the following solutions are pretty much guaranteed to protect your right to say what you want, as long as you aren't saying/doing anything illegal. Content moderation is pretty lax in many of these apps and unfortunately, many attract refugees with unpopular opinions from the more conventional apps they replace, so proceed at your own risk! NOTE: Unlike my other lists, I revisit this one to edit on a regular basis to add new better options and to remove those which are either shut down, go dark, or compromise their free-speech principles (in the case of third party services).

What is Tildes?

Online communities are in a precarious and unhealthy state right now.

Major internet platforms are exhibiting a wide range of issues: they collect our personal data and fail to protect it; amplify outrage and encourage mob harassment; spread false information and radicalize viewpoints; and allow racism and hate speech to propagate. These are all incredibly serious issues, yet they're still only a small sample of the problems that are becoming apparent.

The companies behind the platforms know their products cause these negative effects, but they've decided to treat them as acceptable costs instead of taking decisive action to address the issues. Only legal or public pressure seem to produce meaningful responses.
