So I just realized to get a number to use for a discussion forum, it's $20 per month. That basically stopped me from creating one. An idea I had was to make a few fliers with a QR code linking to my (hypothetical) number, and ask for student's opinions on the COVID-19 situation on campus anonymously.

I could post some of these fliers at my student union, in other common areas. But I think marketing this as anonymous discussion would work pretty well, because people don't have a way to do that anymore in 2020. The compression would mask /some/ identifying vocal intonations, and the area code isn't that relevant, considering a lot of kids at my school are from other states.

I'm not telling you how the site should be run, but I've actually had an idea for something like PeoplesVoicemail before, so now that I found this, I'm pretty hype. I'm willing to help as much as I can, just let me know what I need to do. I believe in you, dude. Keep pushing.
