Yeah I remember him discussing his interviews at Saidit. I don't know how he can be so concerned with these important topics while removing himself entirely from Saidit and Reddit months ago. And d3 appears to be so fed up that he won't bother emailing m7 or checking out Saidit's server problem.
He might think of Saidit as a failed project by now, not worth his time away from other projects or family, while being too proud to pass it along for someone to turn it into something he doesn't like (or have control over). Or, he could be overwhelmed with life outside of Saidit. The fact that his main accounts have gone dark on Reddit and Saidit for the past 8 months make me think the latter. Or, he could have sold his bitcoin and said "F*#$ it! I'm Doug and I'm outta here."
I've had a theory that the insane cloudflare interval was him actively trying to shed users. Maybe he wanted to shut it down but wanted to upset a smaller population.
I also wandered about that. We know that he's actively shed users during several intervals in the past 7 or 8 (?) years. He noted early on that he didn't want the site to become what it quickly became, when it took on many users from Reddit's banned 'hatred' subs. He and d3 and other admins also had communication difficulties.
But until earlier this year, m7 seemed at least somewhat invested in the site. Regarding the cloudflare restrictions, however, he would not listen to reason. While putting extra mods in place (early last year?) he nonetheless was so sure about the ridiculous cloudflare restrictions that he threatened anyone who complained about them with a ban. Really strange.
Anyhow, my comments here and further above are not about finding solutions for Saidit. I'm just curious about its current state. It's already apparent d3 and m7 don't want to do anyting for Saidit these days. They obviously have their reasons, whatever they are. In the past I'd contact them both about host problems and the response was rather quick. Not today, however.
I am grateful to you for your continued work on goatmatrix. I've visited periodically over the years, but have not been very active. At Saidit I've been very supportive of your approaches and your movie nights. At the moment it seems Saidit lives on here, which is amazing. Very much appreciated.
If I had a site and it was compromised and I wasn't allowed to tell the userbase about it, I'd probably try to ruin it so people would voluntarily leave. You know, the Edward character hasn't been around in a while, either. Did that one play itself out?
Magnora used to post about a canary on saidit, like symbolizing a canary in a coal mine, and it said that no govt agencies were involved in saidit. That of course didn't mention private companies and we known govts contract out to private companies for internet spying and censorship. Then the canary posts stopped and I asked magnora why and he just insulted me which seemed out of character when he took it seriously before.
Accurate, except that if you knew him enough it was very much in character - even long before he stopped the canary stuff. He had a short fuse and resorted to stupid debate tactics when wrong, which was often enough, and very common when related to his judgement, ego, secrecy, etc. Ironically he was insightful on politics, corruption, the Rothschilds, etc.
Yeah - it's working, lol. Edward's been around. Shortly before 1 December he replied to some people with the #title text font. He would tend to visit 2 times/week in recent weeks (with odd usernames). Chat's also been quiet much of the time, which is what he seemingly enjoyed most.
Moving on, the only things worth doing are 1) archiving as much of SaidIt as possible, and more importantly 2) supporting other worthy sites/communities like GoatMatrix.
I was there 2018 to 2023 and left 2 years ago.
You said a few.
He hasn't been D3 for years. And he nuked his user.
There were much bigger problems than small insults.
No one is perfect, including d3rr, but the majority of the problem was magnora7.
Bye hope you continue to have a terrible life and be rude to everyone showing that you're really bad at yourself for being an asshole. Remember, you failed at life.
I've never heard of this podcast. It seems pretty professionally done. I see they have a forum. I wonder if they care to know what happened to Saidit and where people ended up. I did a search on their forum for Saidit and the only thing that popped up was one post four years ago. Still they did an entire podcast episode on it so it's reasonable to think they would be at least a little interested. I wonder what kind of user overlap we have.
With or without organic overlap, IMO, we should come up with ways to engineer better communications and communities and ecosystems. It's easy to say that and come up with grand ideas - but difficult to execute. Yet try we must.
Including HigherSide and TinFoilHat, I can think of MANY more authentic worthy conspirophiles from 5 or 10 years ago that aren't on that list. They create vastly better content than the controlled-drama timesuck-silo ops like Ben Shapiro, Matt Walsh, Tim Pool, vs David Pakman, Kyle Kulinski, Majority Report.
Two interviews with HigherSide Chats and two with Sam Tripoli's TinFoil Hat Podcast. Both excellent productions that seemed much more prominent back then, but maybe that's just what I was exposed to, perhaps the algorithm has manipulated me, or maybe better content has risen up to eclipse them from my focus.
Me too.
Glad I backed a few things up.
Shame if I lost some good stuff too.
Last I checked there was still a lot of activity by a dedicated handful.
If it comes back up, I'll try to reach out and see if they might be willing to figure something out for a backup or something. Years ago they made me a co-admin, but I don't even know what that was or what to do with it.
I'll be promoting a bunch of recommended websites (old list) via LeverMind videos. Not entirely sure if I'll have a formula or not. "This episode brought to you by the letter A," kind of thing, and/or more. Also there's a moment in the opening credits where there's a burst of freedom/truth logos (that may evolve). I just need time. Soon. Today was great - bought a diverse bunch of Santa hats and stuff, and prepped for some busy charity Santa work - and even got a bit of work on the studio done. (Photos pending soon.)
It would also be good to know if InfoGalactic was just having money problems or what - and if it can be resolved.
Now with more users on GM, in the new year, after we've got 5 or 6 episodes ready to launch, I want to get all our documentation ducks in a row for some good cross-promotion. We'll get the https://wikispooks.com/wiki/Goat_Matrix article updated and informative, as well as stuff on Projex (rules, guides, goals, roadmaps) and FAQs, etc. And ideally have all the critical features in place running optimally. Draft up some press releases. And only then when as much can be in place, will we do a big push, involving everyone in all our communities, to promote each other and drive up awareness, together. Most questions should already be answered and easily at hand to point to, and everything else handled quickly thereafter. Naturally we'll also have to have defenses, backups, and protocols for problems. A proper campaign should be effective. The more we prep the smoother it should and will be.

From January 22, 2025.
I'm listening to it now and he talks about some of the behind the scenes stuff that went on at Saidit and how he had to manage it.

I mean specifically getting mad about me asking about the canary posts, posts he himself would make so you'd think it'd be ok to ask about.
You'd think a lot of things about magnora7 before discovering he was all contra-diction.

I asked magnora about wef too he didn't want to discuss that tho he does talk about rothschilds.
this is a pretty interesting theory

Why lessen the blow? To save his sparkling reputation? Doubt.
Yep - all of that. My response to this is further below, in response to x0x7's response to you. I am not sure how to share the link here.
Fingers crossed.
Either he's a controlled op or his ego is outrageously huge and stupid. Clearly he's not an authentic freedom fighter and truth-seeker.
Regardless, he should have given the community opportunity for input, self-determination, and self-organizing management.
Fuck magnora7.
Just let SaidIt die.
Life support solves nothing.
Sunk cost fallacy
Moving on, the only things worth doing are 1) archiving as much of SaidIt as possible, and more importantly 2) supporting other worthy sites/communities like GoatMatrix.
D3 wanted to ban people for small insults a few years ago and melted down when magnora said no. He hadn't been involved in the site since then.
Simplistic fiction.
Best to keep facts simple. No fiction.
That's not how it went down.
It is I'd show you the comments proving it but the sites down of course
Most of us were there.
Not you tho
I was there 2018 to 2023 and left 2 years ago.
You said a few.
He hasn't been D3 for years. And he nuked his user.
There were much bigger problems than small insults.
No one is perfect, including d3rr, but the majority of the problem was magnora7.
Let's ask him you said he's here right? Get it right from the source. But I suspect he'd confirm what I said but in a rude meltdown way.
@beenPoisoned ?
Yeah that's not d3. Some troll. People cosplaying? lol.
I love free speech but at certain times I tried to be an admin and enforce the complex pyramid rules. rude meltdown
RIP saddit
lol sure
well fuck you too
Bye hope you continue to have a terrible life and be rude to everyone showing that you're really bad at yourself for being an asshole. Remember, you failed at life.
kike faggot
I'm glad you're furious
I dont even think about you
You wouldn't melt down again if that was true. Your username explains a lot here.
🤣
The crew that followed Ice Poseidon were a wild bunch.
One of my favorite statements from them was, "That nigga Jason Carswell tried to talk to me about 9/11."
Classic.
If at first you don't succeed...
Can't say you're trying to wake up the masses if you don't talk to the idiots, too.
Half of everyone is stupider than average - and most of the rest are really close to average. So...?
Try, try, again.
I wasn't always perfect. But we all got to start somehair.

The Chris Knowles episodes are great.
A fifth interview?
M7 did four interviews in 2018, listed on the article I wrote long ago, https://InfoGalactic.com/info/SaidIt - but IG seems down too. Sad.
Two interviews with HigherSide Chats and two with Sam Tripoli's TinFoil Hat Podcast. Both excellent productions that seemed much more prominent back then, but maybe that's just what I was exposed to, perhaps the algorithm has manipulated me, or maybe better content has risen up to eclipse them from my focus.
Wow. To me that's big that InfoGalactic is down.
Me too.
Glad I backed a few things up.

Worth mentioning, I know this alternative wiki that's pretty cool, http://projex.wiki. You should check it out.
LOL. I know those guys!
Also http://WikiSpooks.com.

Kind of ominous that it shows a skull.
