[9:24pm] Bosun: ?
[9:24pm] jokeefe: doodle poll?
[9:24pm] Joe: On a brighter note, our Youtube channel is up to 39 users.  Will me recording our platform discussions being posted there, I hope to increase our influence.
[9:24pm] ceiling: yeah the doodle poll
[9:25pm] jokeefe: I’ll try poll feature on crew for the next one.  Brave browser cuts down on the ads, but isn’t over Tor.
[9:25pm] Olivia_: Videos serve as content and will help.  Everyone should record videos and be your own citizen journalists!!
[9:25pm] ceiling: it could have triggered because I was using tor plus no user agent
[9:26pm] jokeefe: that would look like a bot
