Apache Cassandra is an open source distributed database management system designed to handle large amounts of data across commodity servers. The font used for its logo is probably Cronos Bold Italic. This logo will be replaced in time.

Cassy redirects here.

Not to be confused with the Apache Cassandra database, the CQL query language, Project Cassandra, or Project Cassandra (literature).

What comes after SaidIt.net, news aggregation forum for truth-seeking and free-thinking? SaidIt.net/s/Cassy

Why "Cassy"?

Cassandra is an ancient Greek figure who foretold great doom, yet no one believed her, though tragically she was always correct.

"Cassandra is a mouthful, Cassy is better," said /u/AmericanMuskrat, unfairly banished (and restored), exemplifying the need to evolve beyond the limitations of SaidIt. The shorter name is also reflective of the Lemmy platform, a federated decentralized Reddit-like forum.

Help plan our next steps beyond SaidIt.

Cassy is for discussing decentralized forum/fora options, federation vs distribution, & planning our community's next steps.

We obviously have problems, but we're working on solutions.

/s/Cassy should not be confused with the vapourware development in /s/PhoenixForum for dreaming our hypothetical our next-generation forum's ideals, form, & functions.

Current Cassy priorities

1) Discuss social management ideas: goals, manifestos, fair forums, rules, community guidelines, protocols template sets, access, anonymity, security, self-regulation, defense against spam, sealioning, & STABs (shills, trolls, & bots), backups, public relations strategies, priorities, to-do-lists, etc.

2) Discuss decentralized/distributed platform/client options & their pros & cons.

3) Discuss set up, trouble shooting, technical issues, assistance, administration, moderation, etc + customizing the flow, form (GUI), & functionality.

4) Discuss anon solutions. All things related to being anonymous (or not), building bonds, & maintaining trust with reasonable cyber-hygiene security precautions - without giving anything away.

We hope SaidIt, other forums, & developers might freely chime in &/or adopt some of these open good ideas from these hopeful & wishful discussions to improve life & liberty & fairness.
