An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭

Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Thanks for the clarification.

Personally, I view these developments with perhaps an unhealthy dose of skepticism. I believe that the ordinary person's lot will not improve with stunts like this. And even though I may come up with ideas explaining why people in power in this country might think it's necessary (as stated in the handful of replies I've made on this post), I do not think that it's truly for the good of the common Filipino. It never is.

Thanks for the exchange. It's been fun.

Hay sa wakas napagod ka na rin. Napagod na din lola mo. Anyways, nung 1st time ko pala nakita ito, a phrase came to mind: technological edifice complex.

Nasa playbook na nila yan.

Mejo na-carried away din ako eh. Check-out ko yang technological edifice complex na yan. Thanks!
