Compete with Reddit

[Zeeloni]

What's the plan to compete with Reddit since this site has been "re-established"?

On Reddit, we can post an image as a post, and elaborate on it... "a picture can mean a thousand words".

In the A.I. age, and respect to the Crone, how can you make this site more "intuitive/magickal" without the ability to post images?

Most alchemical writings and magickal understanding is based on images.

The mind, before language itself, adopts to images... just look at the animals.

Let's be as real as possible. Please

What's the issue you are having when posting images?

[Zeeloni]

I never saw a single image in this whole Occult Forums... what's the process?

My ancestral snakes want to eat, and they eat best when I present information in images

Enter full "Full editor & preview" mode,
if it's remotely hosted image, just click on "image" icon and add url in between "img" tags:

if you want upload file, click "attachments" > "add files" > "place inline":

Since I have you on call... how come I can't see my past messages as a history on my profile like on Reddit? I want to see what I messaged to last night night, without having to trying to hope to figure it out somehow. Why if I'm bi-polar and I have a multi-soul that speaks through me? I want to reflect, I want to catch-back on what I did or said. I only work around the clock on the 4 elements, with Reve's preferred Chinese I-Ching system.

I'm only here to support this site. I'll try not to be evil. But I will donate to counterbalance. Let's invigorate life into these forums.... but they need to compete with Reddit.

Competing with Reddit (or Facebook, or Twitter, and whatever else is out there) is not in the plans.
Forum and all all other platform are completely different environments tailored for different taste, attention spans, cravings, and corporate end-goals. For better or worse, we are not a venture capital funded corp, so we don't need to chase for attention to increase shareholder value. We can just relax and explore mysteries calmly, at our own pace.
As for feature you are asking, it's in your profile > Total posts > Search user’s posts.

Thank you for letting us know you ain't chasing for attention. Obviously I'm not talking about some shareholder value when I'm talking how to express my soul. I just want us to do this right... the first time.

As the previous Crone Reve would say, It's just a dream: https://youtu.be/x3ov9USxVxY?si=ZzspCSxtxDzQX5Wb

I actually went into my public Library and looked up a book called Reve cuz I wanted to know wtf is Reve about, and it was this book called Reve by Julius Evola (It's about someone falling for reverence for survival). Meeting the witch (she was black in race) in my public library doing candle blackwork on the table was too much, so I walked way. But then I walked up to a book about what the meaning of "crone" is, and there she was, standing next to me. Book I picked up smelled of urine. I asked her, can I help you?

She was in her world, talking something I couldn't understand at the time. After reading the book, I realized she wanted to die in happiness, so I felt bad for this forum.

But we can make it better. Last link she sent me before was this:

Let's do this... more images, more images of life. Life celebrates in images, for a picture has a thousand words, or whatever.... It's ain't cool, till we have pictures. As newborn animal, you fixate your conceptual, but the energetic reality... materializes.

Thank you for keeping it old skool, otherwise

Apart from "doom scrolling", we have most of the same features, even if some of those need some extra steps.

We even have youtube embeds (just need to cut out and add video ID between youtube tags):

Amen Brother!

I'd like to see this forum come back to Glory too, I spent two years on "that other forum" (not Reddit), can't hardly stand Reddit.
I contributed considerable material there. I like the format / layout of "this" forum Much, Much Better!

I'm pretty new here and I wanted to post an image to illustrate something important to "Me". So... I put that image on "imgur", (an image hosting site), and created a link to put in my post, Worked like a charm. This is fairly common on many forums, what is "not" common in my experience is being able to "attach" images to a post because many forums just don't have the disc/server (cloud) space. That image illustrates my post here:

I have plans to transfer some of that material here over time as well as write New Stuff too!
