The Agora
In the spirit of the Ancient Greek Agora, we invite you to join our vibrant community - a contemporary meeting place for the exchange of ideas, inspired by the practices of old. Just as the Agora served as the heart of public life in Ancient Athens, our platform is designed to be the epicenter of meaningful discussion and thought-provoking dialogue.
Here, you are encouraged to speak your mind, share your insights, and engage in stimulating discussions. This is your opportunity to shape and influence our collective journey, just like the free citizens of Athens who gathered at the Agora to make significant decisions that impacted their society.
You're not alone in your quest for knowledge and understanding. In this community, you'll find support from like-minded individuals who, like you, are eager to explore new perspectives, challenge their preconceptions, and grow intellectually.
Remember, every voice matters and your contribution can make a difference. We believe that through open dialogue, mutual respect, and a shared commitment to discovery, we can foster a community that embodies the democratic spirit of the Agora in our modern world.

Yea, I don't mean to criticize anyone's work here.
Just keeping the server running and updated is already a lot in itself. (BTW thanks for 0.18.5)
There are a few mods we haven't seen in months, maybe some are helping behind the curtain, maybe others moved on, in which case that's more work on your collective plates.
Community mods you can trust would definitely be something worth its weight in gold. In theory, if every community moderated itself, then the admin load would be much less. The odds of that happening when anyone can create a community is doubtful, but then limiting that also comes with its own drawbacks.
Can't really win.
Then you all have lives and jobs too and that's taking time away from that for little personal benefit.
To all the admins and mods involved: Thanks.
It's something we never take the time for, but thanks for all you're doing.
Me? I'm a network engineer by day, and well — an overworked network engineer by night, I guess.
I'm of a nature to help out but I don't always have much juice left at the end of the day and can't guarantee how much I could actually commit.
Meanwhile, I try to help in small ways, occasionally reaching out about the more egregious stuff (which is usually acted upon quickly by the team).
(I have worked about 30h in the last 36 hours, so I might not be the most coherent)
Again, thanks for all the work it takes to even have this website up at all.
