Hi

I documented myself about Monero and it seem really great !

I would like to start my own node but obviously before I have some questions and I would like to exchange about it.

Like lemmy is still "marginal" but growing, the community's are still low, so I went on the official website of Monero but I see that they only propose linear chat services that require that you identify yourself ! or belong to GAFAM and that goes quite to the opposite of what Monero fight for to preserve your right to anonymity.

Do you know a crowded lemmy community where I could exchange with other Monero enthusiasts or anything else that is a like a built-in board forum where when you have a question you can open a dedicated thread and exchange on that thread ?

Thanks.

hi, federation with monero.town is broken on lemmy.ml since a while now (no idea what's going on). It's still alive and well.

Hi all,

Like I didn't found anything that fitted my need , I created https://monero.freeflarum.com/ ! Feel free to pass to word around, you can connect with Tor and you can provide dummy e-mail.

Almost as if all these cryptos are inherently not private and centralized (through the exchanges) instead of the advertised decentralization. Its just digital money, that if stolen or scammed, you have 0 laws to protect you.
