In their announcement about starting up that site the most up voted post asked a lot of questions, it was never answered. The questions were about site privacy.
I think I have looked at it three times since they started. It seemed like there were only a few posters, they were prolific though.
The interface sucks, I have zero interest in making a new accout, and it has a ton (67) of JavaScript requests.
I wish they were active here, they are not though.
There must have been, of course, another side to the drama.
If you’re looking to start over somewhere off .ml, and who could blame you?, why not just create a new community on an instance that is definitely still maintained?
