tildes.net is similar in that it’s good but it does have politics

Very interested in getting in on taht when it starts opening up. To me there's a crisis of credibility in modern media, especially social media - contributors are so ephemerial and pseudonymous, it's too easy for sockpuppets, bots, paid posters, etc. to masquerade as journalists and average citizens.

A system that focuses on exclusivity and controlling who has the algorithmic equivalent of credibility on their platform is very interesting to me.

yeah it’s been working pretty well and it’s been almost a year. the only thing it needs really is more users.

Sadly its invite only and I know nobody with an invite. If anyone fancies throwing one my way it'd be appreciated.

The hand them out on their subreddit. Took me three minutes from posting to getting an invite from one of the owners of tildes

Thanks

(Tildes is my site)

You (and anyone else) are welcome to email me for an invite. It's not intended to be difficult to get one, I just want to keep it under control and avoid any giant floods of users/bots.

Please read the announcement post for some general info about the site's goals, and the info for requesting an invite is in there: https://blog.tildes.net/announcing-tildes

Yeah, tildes is definitely a cool space.

Any chance I could grab an invite code from one of you guys? Interested in this, looks like a cool place.

Sent you one via your contact form.
