Isn't that address where the freshmeat crew of rPV hangs out?

As far as I know mastodon isn't on windows or mac, which would keep most voaters away. That would keep out niggers though.

Mammoth for Mastodon is a Windows Mastodon client.

You should also be able install one of the Android clients into Chrome.

Signal advertised that as a desktop option. Because Telegram, Viber, & Wire all have actual windows desktop clients.

There is an unofficial Voat Discord server run by people who are actual Voat Goats.

I would say it is run by Discord, but they allow some Boat Goats administrator rights.

Just because the nominal government may not have the resources does not mean there is privacy or safety. Guam...Has any superpower taken an interest in that place? Chile... Did Pinochet come to power without help?

Most every country has cameras everywhere. Did you know that cameras are in cell phones? :-)

Not yet, here. As I recall, there was a Canadian who was convicted in Germany for something she had done in Canada. I practice very little self censorship.

Did you say you had some information about a former first lady? Wanna chat about it online. /s :-)

I would argue it is not okay to use Discord. The clients are remote back doors and surveillance tools. Use Mumble or Teamspeak or anything where you run the server on your resources (even if it's a $15/yr VPS).

They send a tracking request for every single thing you do in their client. Clicked on someone’s profile, clicked on a channel, clicked on a server, etc. The URL was named /track before but they renamed it to “/events” recently (but it’s still a POST with no response).

Also their desktop client is literally a remote administration toolkit, it has full access to FS (electron app) and it loads every script from their servers.

They can just add something like require(‘fs’).readFileSync(process.env.HOME + ‘/.ssh/id_rsa’).toString() and send this to their servers, and you won’t even notice that (since it doesn’t require an update on client because the client is just a browser with full permissions that loads obfuscated code from their servers every time you launch it).

In addition to that by being a centralized service (instead of an open protocol with federated servers in networks) it creates perverse incentives for censorship due to the company not wanting to associate with scoundrels. Currently Discord will even ban groups that discuss video game cheats.

Hosting your own (mumble/teamspeak) or using a federated open protocol (IRC/Matrix.org) cuts the gordian knot of deciding what type of content will be allowed for everyone.

Know much about TOR or freenet as a way to potentially host a backup forum?

I do know that freenet is slow as shit to the point of being unusable. And that's assuming you can even find 3 peers to start. No, freenet is a late 90s/early 2000s thing. As for Tor... it's great! While the privacy isn't perfect it doesn't really have to be. One of the huge advantages of using Tor is that you actually own your own domain instead of just leasing it on the sufferance of some centralized entity that is subject to political and social pressures. I run all of my websites on both the clear net and on Tor as hidden services. Unless you really want to be super-secret-spy-shit there's no difference in running on Tor or on the normal 'net. So, just set up a this 'backup forum' how you would a normal one.

i2p is better for real time communication, though it may not be as secure as tor.

It is still proprietary software so as far as I care it is not to be trusted.

Like I've said, there are zero safe spaces on the public internet.
