Ask HN: What are the less known HN-like forums?

>Topics of interest: hacking (actual, not just in the name), startups, entrepreneurship, internet marketing.

I'm curious why you feel being able to use offensive language and express "opposing views" (whatever that means, I assume politics) is particularly germaine to high quality discussion of those topics.

If all you're looking for is a place where you can be an edgelord without consequence then there's always /g/ and 8chan (on the dark web as 8kun,) and maybe Voat and Gab.

> With the rise of cancel culture and remotely offensive language being censored where can one go to find a community more tolerant of opposing views?

If you're itching to call someone the N or F word or want to brood about the sudden rise of feminism in America, may I suggest finding a pen pal and communicating that way?

Wow that seems awfully presumptuous!

I would guess Reddit is where I would start looking for it.

Reddit is neither "less known" nor a good place to find a new general community, unless you have a niche interest.

Reddit is huge I’m sure great communities exist, but I’m not sure if that recommendation gets me any closer to an answer than just starting from the internet as a whole.
