### So is there a whole community here or what? Do you have forums or anything?
Well, firstly LRS by [anarchist](anarchism.md) principles avoids establishing a centralized community with things such as platforms, senior members, moderators, bureaucracy, codified rules etc. Every nice thing that went this way turned to shit once it became more popular and grew, corruption always appears and prevails (see [Wikipedia](wikipedia.md), [GNU](gnu.md)/FSF, [Linux](linux.md) etc.). So we rather aim for a community of decentralized, loosely associated individuals and small entities with greatly overlapping sets of values rather than any organizations etc. So rather think something like many people with their own websites referring and linking to each other.

At the moment this wiki/movement/ideology/etc. is basically me ([drummyfish](drummyfish.md)). There are a handful of people who told me they like this wiki a lot, share many of my views and values and who I am in regular contact with mostly over email. Then there are quite a few people who like this to various degree and contact me from time to time, many just write me a one time email, suggest something, thank me, suggest I kill myself etc., from which I estimate there is a non-negligible number of lurkers (given that only 1 in relatively many readers will actually write me an email).
At the moment this wiki/movement/ideology/etc. is basically me ([drummyfish](drummyfish.md)), with about one friend who I would say is a pure LRS supporter and AFAIK shares all the important views. There are a handful of people who told me they like this wiki a lot, share many of my views and values and who I am in regular contact with mostly over email. Then there are quite a few people who like this to various degree and contact me from time to time, many just write me a one time email, suggest something, thank me, suggest I kill myself etc. -- currently I would count these in dozens, from which I estimate there is a non-negligible number of lurkers (given that only 1 in relatively many readers will actually write me an email).
A forum, mailing list or something would possibly be nice, but so far no one made any and I would be hesitant to call it an "official" LRS forum anyway, exactly to prevent growing into some kind of corrupt "democratic internet community" of which there are too many nowadays. I am also pretty anxious of collaborating with someone, making hard connections to other project etc. So if you'd like to make a LRS-focused forum (or anything similar), it would be best if you just make it your own thing -- of course I'll be very glad if you refer to my stuff etc., I just won't be able to keep up with another project, I will only be able to be a regular user of your forum.
I don't have any web analytics set up, I could probably dig up at least number of site downloads or something but I don't even look at that, I don't want to aim for popularity.
A forum, mailing list or something would possibly be nice, so far I've only experimented with more or less private text boards for closer friends and similar things, no one made anything bigger yet and I would be hesitant to call it an "official" LRS forum anyway, exactly to prevent growing into some kind of corrupt "democratic internet community" of which there are too many nowadays. I am also absolute shit at running any "community" (I tried several times, always failed) and also pretty anxious of collaborating with someone, making hard connections to other project etc. So if you'd like to make a LRS-focused forum (or anything similar), it would be best if you just make it your own thing -- of course I'll be very glad if you refer to my stuff etc., I just won't be able to keep up with another project, play an admin or something, I will only be able to be a regular user of that forum.
### Why the angry and aggressive tone, can't you write in a nicer way, especially when you advocate love etc.?
