Has anyone signed up?

It's very interesting what the first topics are. There is a #conservatism with 8 members already, but you can't make #liberalism, #communism or #leftists. "The_Donald" is "coming soon".

(Edit: I must have hit a bug because I tried with a few names and my attempts just didn't do anything, but someone else did it immediately).

I wonder if this is like Gab, an attempt to make a more single-issue-politics-friendly variant of a popular site.

Jup created #agile was thinking of trying to create a agile focused HN and 1 minute later this came along :-). Anyway if this doesn't work out; DM me if you are interested in starting something like a agile focused HN. Looking a bit more fore the business / change management side of things instead of the SE side of things
I just signed up and created #liberalism to test it out. Worked just fine

Me too, I've created #Communism, works for me too. I didn't like how I had to subscribe to other channels before it let me make my own, though.

Yeah, I edited my response to point out I think I hit a bug.
This is exactly what I saw. Is it just the conservative outcasts from Reddit? Will we see a #creepshots in a few weeks?
