Is Ruqqus Good Yet?

Looking at Ruqqus so you don’t have to

To see if Ruqqus is good yet, I’ve looked at only the quality posts in the past week. Let’s see if it’s good.


+Linux

  • The old GMs got overthrown, the new one is more active, a developer, and quite the troll
  • The community went to town with a discussion on how bad Firefox is (& why Brave is better)
  • The community decided to harass one of the Ruqqus admins for using Windows

+Cryptocurrency

  • I was actively talking about shorting Doge a few months back, and with the new ATH people were concerned
  • Circlejerk on how Monero is bringing privacy to Zcash

+Privacy

  • Community celebrated services blocking FLoC, discussion degraded into “Brave good”, “voter ID racist”
  • Ruqqies got upset at the idea the Australian government wants users to provide ID before accessing certain social medias

Leftist Guilds

  • Pretty dead, but posts do get comments

General META

  • Aevann, a GM, shitposter, but mostly a bot who reposts Reddit content, got temp banned (everyone liked that)
  • Ruqqus showed their bigotry again by voting the most hated person on the site to be one of the only openly gay leftists

Ratings:

  • Quality OC posts: 3/10
  • Drama: 8/10
  • Discussion: 5/10

Is it good yet?

No.

      No guarantee for weekly, I just happened to only look past the last week. I’ll do it every so often, though!

    To General META: The ones voted most hated weren’t voted that because they were openly gay leftists (to say that is both lazy and irresponsible.) It’s because they were the most arrogant, fucked-up, obnoxious shit-tier assholes on the site! If you stop being a bigoted hetero-phobe for five minutes and do your homework you’ll discover that there are very many gay people on Ruqqus who’re very well liked because they’re nice people but, also, because they don’t go about blasting a “gay bullhorn” in the faces of everyone they meet.

    Are you kidding? All the original founders and mods of Ruqqus have bailed. They’re gone! The place is a shithole now. Why would you even bother going there except to spam and troll? That site will be internet history within the year!
