It's tough to find an alternative. Social media giants like FB usually buy up and corrupt any upcoming sites. I am a supporter of Congress breaking any company that has an international media group/arm worth over $500 million.
I have occasionally been a little too unrestrained here, which I attribute partly to overreacting to other people fired up by partisan websites that have been purposely juiced by bad actors (NRA taking money from Russia, Koch bros., Pig Oil*, etc.). Some large media companies push both sides of debates, like Murdoch's News Corp being pro-Climate Change in Australia and being anti-Climate Change in the US. :punch:
