This is been modus operandi for Wagner and is the only reason they're allowed to exist while the Russian law forbids private armies, it was Russia's deniable involvement in various conflicts in Africa and the middle east

I like that they're moving to something self-hosted. I don't like that it's a non-threaded forum again. I liked Reddit and do like kbin / Lemmy because the structure of the threads is preserved much better, like it was with Usenet or mailing lists before. I think a better approach would have been to host such an instance on their own.
