Cassandra Team
- Cassy redirects here.
- Not to be confused with the Apache Cassandra database, the CQL query language, Project Cassandra, or Project Cassandra (literature).
- This page was mirrored and forked from the SaidIt.net/s/Cassy sidebox.
- This article ceased development 2023-04-12 until updated 2024-07-15.
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.
Cassy priorities
- Discuss ethical 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.
- Discuss decentralized/distributed platform/client options and their pros and cons.
- Discuss set up, trouble shooting, technical issues, assistance, administration, moderation, etc + customising the flow, form (GUI), and functionality.
- Discuss anon solutions. All things related to being anonymous (or not), building bonds, and maintaining trust with reasonable cyber-hygiene security precautions - without giving anything away.
We hope SaidIt, Matrix.Gvid.TV, RabbitHole.wf, 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.
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.
Cassy developments
SaidIt issues
SaidIt.net was a news aggregation forum for truth-seeking and free-thinking, but its issues have festered as a refuge for those banned from Reddit (good, bad, and ugly), and the stagnant, uninspired, and absent management has allowed the site to forum-slide into nasty chaos on par with Voat, Poal, and 4Chan.
And then there's the mismanagement...
So to answer the question "What comes after SaidIt?" the Cassandra Team was formed.
☑ /s/Cassy
- To evolve beyond SaidIt.
- To develop self-management concepts for SaidIt, Cassy, and any social media platform.
Servers
☑ "Cassandra" indie server - offline, former host of RabbitHole.WF
☑ VPS Virtual Private Server #1, host of Projex.Wiki
☑ VPS Virtual Private Server #2, host of LeverMind.net
Cassandra Team platforms
LeverMind.net
- On the HumHub platform, LeverMind.net is the online Facebook-like free-discourse community-forum and communications hub. LeverMind developing projects are founded on the voluntaryist principles of bottom-up community self-management opposing the global corporatocracy's top-down tyrannical technocracy.
- With the lessons learned from starting new social media platforms, FOEPATCHISM, and community organizing we're working on the foundational outlines in the LeverMind project's operational documentation.
