Also not keen on the Reddit approach. It'd take a lot more work to moderate it, I feel: Reddit's kinda known for being... well, mildly toxic in general with abysses of supreme dreadfulness.
I really like the look of Discourse, in contrast, and http://blog.discourse.org/2013/03/the-universal-rules-of-civilized-discourse/ seems to indicate that they're starting from a more enlightened position at least. The software may even help persuading users to be cool. (It also *looks* modern, which is a big plus for me. Clunky old-style forums with pages and huge signatures are such a turn-off. I may even be persuaded to participate ☺) https://www.mythic-beasts.com/servers/virtual starts off at £5 a month (£50 per year), at 500G bandwidth pm, and our own choice of OS (unsurprisingly, I dig Debian). From experience managing the domains and redirects, the support staff seem pretty clueful, which is always a bonus. Does anyone have any bandwidth estimates? -- Andrew Chadwick _______________________________________________ Mypaint-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/mypaint-discuss
