Is Longecity running down?

No, the medical establishment is not about to do anything useful about aging. I neither trust or have any confidence at all in the medical establishment. It's up to us to do something useful about it. That's why I come in here (longecity).

I missed the notice of the meeting. Scheduling it just a day before seems like poor planning. Did I miss anything or was it just a repeat of what was already said? I'm sure mind would not answer my questions same as he ignores them here. 

 

Has anything been done? If nothing is done its fairly clear that the site will continue to dwindle. Advertising revenue coming in can be used to place carefully crafted ads for this site. There are other things that can be done but as I pointed out before, inertia is the default state of all groups and individuals. In order to get beyond that and actively try to fix things requires awareness and understand of the problem, focusing on a solution, and implementing the solution like for example ads. Next must come follow up and adjustment.

 

We are at the first step, trying to understand that there is a problem. Will anything come of it?

Which other sites are members going to now that Longecity is slowing down?

The wider point is that the internet has been fully 'captured' by functional monopolies like google and amazon, so people will only go where directed, in this case by google. And that would be reddit. The discourse there is far inferior to Longecity. I think the only thing that can solve this, ultimately, is for search engines like google to have their power limited, perhaps by being declared a monopoly and being split up into smaller, less dominant search engines.

The quality of dialogue is so inferior on Reddit. On reddit, any post about longevity usually receives many comments from people saying that longevity is bad because it will enable billionaires to live forever. Then you get a bunch of people making stupid puns, trolls, and people who don't know anything about science.

You can certainly engage with good debate and discussion here at LongeCity. For anyone who is on Reddit and notices some sharp people discussing rejuvenation, let them know about LongeCIty.
