Thank you!

I love the Wayback Machine for this!

Thanks for your comment, I really appreciate it.

I imagine to some degree it helped, I mean no one wants to be a part of an empty community right?

Keeping "fresh" torrents on the front page probably mattered more, at least it would have to me as a user.

Good question. I don't have any idea who I would pass it to. If you do, it could be considered!

I also miss the good old days. It all felt smaller looking back, but still huge back then in a lot of ways.

Being found on Google and starting a community off that alone does seem like a pipe dream now, but I think mostly because of how people interact with the web and the platforms they are siloed into by default.

I have run into that in some places before! I imagine just because of the word torrent.

I had spammers uploading torrents in mass for a good while. With auto approval of torrents I spent a lot of time logging in to fight them.

Eventually I found an addon to help bulk remove torrents, but even that was a hassle. Eventually in the later years I turned on email verification, which didn't actually work (I never bothered to figure out why) and if someone really wanted to upload, they would post on the forum to which I would then manually verify them.

Sending spam or malware stuff coming from the IP range.

Bought some small websites that were "guaranteed" to be making a certain amount of money. They were, but with fraudulent ad clicks.

It will, but it might take more will power and discipline to make those things happen than it used to.

There are a few things to address the default overload.

- There is a "writing mode" - You can hide the sidebars or portions of the sidebars.

You can set your own shortcuts for actions in the options.

No mobile app*

But the web version is usable on mobile.

I also do both right now, helps with some rediscovery, but I think tagging (linking) could be a better long term approach.

Nice idea, maybe make a feature request.

Also the fact that I can completely self host it on a server while running a local client on any machine that syncs effortlessly.

I have been using Trilium lately and I love it. What sold me completely is the sidebar sections "What Links Here" - my purposeful linking and "Similar Notes" - reminding me of what I may have forgotten.

I take SEO and organic growth seriously. I have over six years of experience working in SEO specific roles. I am able to continue organic growth for clients who already have thousands of pages, some increasing over 100%. I also take clients from nothing to ~10,000 pageviews in six months time. This is done with a combination of Ahrefs, spreadsheets, and a well planned content strategy - three of my favorite things.

I sent in an application and referenced your username. My first name is Dustin if you are able to put in a good word!
