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.

Who classifies that?
Basic user comments about a network that I see on other networks - many are quick to label a network as liberal and conservative, which I gather are generally attributed to US politics (we don’t refer to our parties by those terms at least - just a party name is used). I’m pretty sure sites themselves are not one or the other, but seems many users judge by posts or comments they see and then are quick to label a site.
Sites themselves are one or the other, they have specific moderation teams that get instructions how to moderate (or not moderate). These rules do in themselves have political meaning. Not just in the US, but everywhere.
