🇾 🇪 🇿 🇿 🇪 🇾Does anyone remember Third Voice? You could graffiti any website and only people who had plugin installed could see it. Why isn't there a modern alternative?
InvalidName2Honestly, I know it’s not the same, but that’s why I have always gravitated towards “news aggregators”, basically the sites that bore progeny like Reddit and Lemmy, where you’re presented with links to news or random websites and people have their say about it in the comments.
I never heard of Third Voice and truthfully anything that is 100% reliant on a third party app or plugin / extension / mod / etc probably isn’t my bag of tea, but still a cool idea.
One of the best thing about old reddit was how often you’d see a post for a news article about some scientific research, and if you went in the comments you’d find something like, “I’m a graduate student who helped work on this research and the reporter completely misunderstood it and their conclusion in the article is all wrong. Here’s a link to the original paper, and I’ll give a brief explanation of what our research actually found…”
These days that’s more common on Lemmy.
Lemmy now definitely reminds me of the very early days of reddit, enjoying it immensely
