There are some very generic filters in it, like "*.guru" - the whole top-level-domain. When I wanted to link to [url]satcom.guru[/url], a Boeing flight electronics engineer's articles (he investigated and revealed first the technical design faults in MCAS), I had to wait for 3 weeks and the generous "help" of an insider to get one measly line into the whitelist to allow linking to it... Beetstra simply ignored my requests, as he did not know me... The foundation is up against this counter-productive mentality with the purpose of "diversity" and acquiring new editors.
Not surprised at all. Sending a blatant message: "you either talk the way we want you to talk, or you're history". Letting Fiona run ANYTHING is a bad idea.badmachine wrote: ↑Sun Sep 17, 2023 9:57 pmthere's a thread on some other wikipedia criticism site mentioning that WikiTribune/WT Social is now something called Trust Cafe.
i poked around a little and saw Panyd (developer and "head of community" lol),
They turned it into a private forum. Tightly controlled and highly censored, and I bet it's been crawling with WP insiders since 2019, fighting and backstabbing each other. Obviously not ingredients for a successful "social media" site. I continue to suspect it will eventually fall apart due to internal battles--and we will NEVER hear what really happened.and an editor complaining that his article with Christian content caused him to be banned. that's no way to treat your "silver" suckers contributors
the site looks different than WT Social yet the old donate link still works... of course

Yup, wt.social is abandoned. Another wonderful Jimbo invention goes to pot. Don't be too surprised if spammers seize it and fill it with garbage within a few months.badmachine wrote: ↑Sun Mar 17, 2024 11:21 pmwt.social now returns a 500 error:
