I've been writing and running a little Rails forum for about a month now for some friends!
I think I still have a little bit to go for a 1.0 for the software (mainly pagination, our forum is too small to require it yet) but think it's in a place where I can recommend it to others if you're interested in shaping development.
if you're interested in running a little forum for your friends or an existing community, check it out (and let me know so I start versioning!): https://github.com/hartsick/ruBB
somehow people never make that leap though they just want the private organizations to do good for everybody out of some sense of personal justice or idek
a state-owned institution, funded by the people and acting on their behalf and in their interests, has moral, legal, and political responsibilities to meet their needs.
a private organization doesn’t. a private organization certainly doesn’t have an obligation to meet the needs of EVERY person. they can just pick a subset.
if all the private organizations are picking subsets which don’t include you, that’s a strong argument for state ownership.

TARES is also good
you should definitely have both T and S in your first word because those letters are frequent combinators (without them H becomes much less likely); S at the end gives you peace of mind; L or R helps point you to/away from BL/PL/GL/CL and BR/PR/DR/TR/GR/CR
