Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

Good on you for using your real name. Just as some criticize wikipedia for anonymitity, I wonder if a forum with real names would cause people to be more respectful.

Your an admin here, can I ask which com is best for selfhosting?

Not sure what you mean. Would you, please, elaborate?

Permies.com requires people to use their real name (at least something that sounds real) and there's very little toxicity there. Although how much that affects things I don't know, as the mods are very active, and quick to ban.

Society tried that for a bit. It was called Facebook and most people just found ways to be jerks on there too!
