Thanks for your thoughts, turkm. I didn’t create it as an authority on the matter but rather as someone that has gotten very worried about how hard it is to get info that isn’t blended in a corporate blender.

My most recent example was realizing over 3/4 of my regular forums are owned by verticalscope. The sweeping changes across all the sites were rubbing me the wrong way. Trying to find active forums that hadn’t sold to them has proven next to impossible, however.

Which led to my curiosity; could we groupthink a useful database of sites and resources that hadn’t yet been absorbed by one of these conglomerates?

I’ve started work on a sister site that I hope to use to make keeping track of solutions easier if my attention span permits.

Anyone have a comparable launcher that is still being developed?

So it’s safe to carry on not using it?

Piessants.
