You may have seen a lot of posts about "this thread being mirrored on hoot" in this sub. You might be wondering what those are.
Hoot is a way to have decentralized Reddit. This means that if this sub gets banned then we can happily post over there without a care. It also means that the rules Reddit places on us here are less of a big deal over there. We can host it where we want, and how we want.
But what makes this different from a phpbb forum is that an account on one node allows you to access content on completely different nodes. This works sort of like how you can email people from a Yahoo account even if they are on Hotmail.
So now that that's out of the way, does anyone have any questions?
