Ramble is an effort to also promote the use of alternative internets ie. not just https regular web.
The great thing about their setup is that it allows users from various anonymity networks to actually interact with one another in a seamless, transparent fashion. Someone browsing their Onion Service may be responding to a post made from the clearnet, and have their response upvoted from someone who agrees with their comment from the I2P eepsite while a Yggdrasil user is creating a forum. Regardless of the method you choose to access the Ramble website, you’d be interacting with people from outside of your network in a relatively unique fashion. You can login to your account through any network that you wish. Post on your phone using the clearnet website, come home, and hop on the I2P eepsite and you’ll have everything right there.
Another interesting feature is a fully transparent moderation log, showing any banned users or other deletions made (a bit like Aether does) with a reason. You only need to choose any username and password to get going, no e-mail or phone number requested to register.

yeah me too. Thought they don’t argue for centralization, but for autonomous spaces, that do interact with each other without agreeing to a specific standard.
They propose to use hyperlinks as a means for that. Thought unfortunate, raddle is the only online community that is interactive and not anarchistnews.org (the later one is to toxic for me) to which they link to. Raddle is nice, but sometimes also a bit rough. I would appreciate the existence of a place that could interact with raddle, but is on at the same independent from it.
