Ask HN: What alternatives to social media do you know?

What alternatives to social networks do you know.

I know a little: gab.com and parler.com. Perhaps there is something else interesting.

Private forums.

By that, I mean forums that only show their content to members who have created an account. Some of them may have a vetting process that can include paying money for the upkeep of the site.

Finding such forums is a problem in itself, and I can't help you, there.

Billy's Coffee at 57 Sheridan St, Cairns, Queensland, Australia. It's a pleasant social scene, especially in the early mornings. Nice coffee too :)

At Billy's I never get hacked or spammed, and am able to engage in healthy, face-to-face communication with my fellows. There is usually a guitar to play if you like that sort of thing.

Good suggestion. But ... For some reason, you wrote a message not on the wall in the cafe, but on this forum ...
