   @mcc @chris

   Or the move from SlashDot to SoylentNews.

   Simplest way: If you see a service that has hints of this, warn your friends, and, get a large bucket of popcorn.

     @BillySmith @chris Don't look at me. I was part of the exodus from SlashDot to Kuro5hin. Which I thought actually went pretty well actually

     @mcc @BillySmith Good times. Though the husk of slashdot is still around but Kuro5hin is not :-/

     @mcc @BillySmith This is really sad, I’m sorry.
     But it shows again that information can only persist if it is copied and spread.
     That’s why publishing on corporate platform, exclusively is such a bad idea. Just imagine youtube would really successfully lock ‘their’ content away one day.
