It is interesting for sure, it does seem like "blue ocean strategy" in terms of finding a marketimg niche. The shopping cart on the front page makes me think this might be somebody who found it too difficult or had too much conscience to keep the lies churning in maga space.

On the other hand it does feel a lot like something that might help a lot of apolitical extroverts who sort of found their communities saturated with maga people and converted for that reason

I would honestly trust this more if it was run by a church and didnt have a shopping cart on the front page.

The popup "help someone else leave maga!" 5 seconds in tells me I can't send this to actual MAGA I know, they'll see that and close the window with a sneer. This website is not designed to convert people, it's designed to sell merch to frustrated liberals with MAGA family.

This. I think it's even in place to have a little bit of tolerance for the fact that they might still have their minds a little bit poisoned with all the hateful crap. It may take long time and a lot of work to clean up your mind. Doing first step should be celebrated though.
