Hello everyone! A few days ago I set up a small server on Revolt. It’s a Discord alternative, so there are different channels to chat, share products and ideas, ask questions, etc.

If anyone is interested in meeting and hanging out with like-minded folks, come say hi! There are currently 40 members. Lots of room to grow and develop into an active little community. Cheers

Thank you! I'm excited to see where things are going, both for the initiative itself and the server.

How is it going a few days later?

[–] nullpilot@feddit.org 1 points 1 day ago

I restructured the server a little based on feedback, and continue to do so. There has been some activity, not a whole lot, but it's slowly creeping up to 60 members now. That's quite exactly 10 members a day so far. Certainly not the movement the subreddit has turned into, but I am pleased to see that there is interest at all! Thank you for asking.

Just a curious question in regards to how ordering from EU works in the UK.

When you order from EU to be shipped to UK, do you have to pay customs?

I ask because i live in EU and ever sincethe UK left the EU, i have only ordered from there once and never since, as it turned out to be way too expensive both with the customs fees themselves but especially the custom handling by the shipping company.
