Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

You can probably find your scene, just it'll take some effort. Unless you don't live in a diverse urban city
I know tons of cool people who do tech hobby/projects. Mostly either broke white anarchists or well-off breadtube socialist POCs. None of their vibes feel rich or too white. The latter we mostly hang out at queer dives, punk houses, underground parties, counter culture community spaces, etc.
I actually live in a great city for this sort of thing, I think. I just need to try harder and get over some of my own hangups ig.
the tech things I've been to here have mostly been questionable, either super white collar or gross libertarians, but I know based on the number of queer people at the white collar events I've been to, and the decent sized punk scene and such, that there must be some cool people at the center of the venn diagram
yea they def exist. idt they exist in any event that's going to be corporate sponsored or sell tickets above like 20 bucks
like small community/art centres/studios moreso
