Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

I just realized that Hurricane Hilary is in SoCal pala, which is unusual. It's also comparable in strength to Egay na run of the mill typhoon lang sa atin yet they're already struggling with flash floods and power outages (expected to last for a while).
Goes to show how infrastructure can be caught unprepared for unusual weather patterns. I shudder at the thought of getting a few days of snow here.
