I was surprised by the uniformity in profiles of the represented groups!
I'd like to see more groups with views similar to Ben Shapiro, Larry Elder & Heartland Institute.

What about a search tool?

I discovered the #. But since not all posts have # or a lot of them, maybe a search tool would be a nice addition.

@benoitdavid We've a search bar for both groups and posts. I'll try to make it more obvious (or just show it all the time).

@Admin Found it, thanks!

The format of the site is great. There aren't too many distractions and it's easy to navigate. My only critique right now is with the app on iOS. I had typed up a post and accidentally swiped while trying to select text. In swiping, it sent me to the previous page and deleted the contents of my entire post. Perhaps the swipe-to-go-back function can be switched out for a back button.

Oh man, I can understand how it feels to lose a post - especially if done on mobile! We're thinking of auto-saving posts as "draft" as you type (e.g., every 1 minute save). I'll try to bump that. As far as back button, we're thinking of having it on the lower left on every page but we fear it will hide text.

I believe charging 5$ a month to members only to weed out trolls . Also I believe there a better way to communicate then the way this app is set up.

Even $1 would cut out spammers but I don't know about trolls. Yes, possibly. Happy to get your feedback as to where we should focus our design updates. Thanks!

Videos of the speeches like from shapiro ,dsouza just to name a few

We are hoping to post daily in their groups.

Thank you for including me.

It is confusing, I am just used to being in a chat, I really would like to talk privately or with like-minded people for some fun where people don't grab you comments and look up one's information. With get points and such seems to much of a scam to me and bothersome. Personally I would rather just chat with like-minded or different minded people.

Sure, but how to know which person to talk with?

There's the rub...

Add video and audio to the page. ie.. make the when you hover over text have it read the comments.

Some browsers have text to speech built in - especially for people with low vision. Could consider that?

@Admin Just a thought to take this to the next level application. Text to speech does work for hold page but not for blocks of text.

I'd like to see Candace Owens and William Lane Craig added. Other than that, no suggestions.

We've a group for "Candace Owens Fans" Group and when you reach level 4, you can create new groups!

@Admin Awesome, thank you! Yeah I searched her name and all I found were threads, but the link took me right there. Also, I take it I can't give "coins" to Candace Owens because she's not a member or something?

@Vic2Point0 You can "give" coins to her now at [slug.com]

I’m so happy to have found a place that seems to be more interested in truth than in $&@&ing political correctness. Both Left and Right politics have severe problems which each parody in the other, even while talking past each other. Perhaps some of this can be addressed.

I have something you can do. Fix the comments so they take carriage returns. Paragraph function doesn't seem to work in comment-mode. Which makes every commenter look like some newb writer who can't use paragraphs. Doubleplus ungood.

Edit: never mind. It looks like the paragraph collapse shows up only in the poster's main page, and not in the actual page of the group where the comment is posted.

Glad it worked 🙂

@Admin Well, you might still look into fixing it so that carriage returns are never collapsed anywhere. I don't think it's ever "worth it."

Happy to see a platform that could elevate my understanding of political events in this evermore complex information arena. I am pleased to read other's thoughts which hopefully help to sort or reinforce my position.

Woo hoo! Intellectual Freedom embodied in an online community. I pray that this becomes insanely huge in it own right. Those who get deplatformed need a place to think through dangerous ideas and hash them out.

Thanks - we're working hard 🙂

I try to live in my homeland Sweden, but it's getting more and more horrible for every year.
My work is within the Swedish Lutheran Church (former "State Church" ), which since the last decades has been totally overtaken by leftists/postmodernists/christianity haters/islam lovers.

I've heard Sweden has some of the toughest anti-free-speech laws in western Europe. Is it true that the media is prohibited to list any stats based on ethnicity or religion?

@Admin In theory: I don't know. In deed: yes. An example: The last efforts from the Swedish police to keep stats based on ethnicity, was in the 90's, and concerned the crimes of certain gypsy clans. All hell broke loose when this "list" reached mainstream media. Since then, every effort to gather statistics over, say rape crimes done by immigrants, or similar matters, has been banned.

Add Camille Puglia I'm very wary of political Parties and MOVEMENTS-but I'll give it a try.Don't need e.g. "Peterson destroys whoever".Very Childish.Don't need such bias . Let the arguments speak for themselves.

Agreed, facts are more powerful than opinion.

Agree 100%

Hi all,
I'm just a guy who enjoys the little things, such as small government, liberty and the intrest of happiness! I love to laugh and as my name implies it can be a little shady. But I firmly believe people laughter is the best medicine! Thanks for having me!

Position? Like market targets? Seems to be for Free Speech Absolutism and Critical Thought.

Site seems fine, uploading videos stall at 9%.

Seems even Youtube playlist link shows as a video.

Tags seem limited to a singe word. #freespeech doesn't but #liberty links.

Tags can be comprised of multiple words but without spaces. Both of your tags works for me.

@Admin Odd wasn't the other day.

1

Ebooks separated by category freely accessible. particularly books on history, politics, economics, and science

Thanks! I started working on a directory of tags here: [slug.com]

I’ll look it over, over time. I adapt to the situation, the environment. In this case the site.

Avast! Just a little #headsup.
We desperately need a "HEALTH & WELLNESS" option when posting content. NONE yet exists! Yikes
