Not everyone may know this, and it may not be obvious. Once you have a .Win account on one sub, you can use the same account on all .Win subs.
If you have an account on one .Win sub, just log-in with the same log-in info on another .Win sub. You don't have to make an account more than once.
I know it is weird that (as far I know) you are not automatically logged-in on other .Win subs when logged-in on one of them. In a sense they are basically websites of their own while also being able to share accounts some how.
EDIT: Ofcourse you should make sure you only do this with Official .Win subs, which you can find a list of here.
Plebbit has 'subs'. Win has 'doms' aka domains.
I just say "wins". There's different ways of winning.
Though it may be wiser to maintain different usernames on different sites anyway.
Why is that?
My only thought is so that the faggot Marxists don't try to assemble a file to dox someone based off of a universal username across multiple platforms. Everything you say can leave breadcrumbs to who you are even if you don't actively include personal details.
Or maybe I'm just descending into paranoia.
Nah you're not, the autism of some of these sjw's would rival the average 4channer. They've already proven they'll dox anyone and anything for wrong think.
Fair enough.
And it's not paranoia if they really are out to get you, lmao.
You absolutely are not.
Unless there is a reason for you to be recognized on different sites, like the mods here, you should never reuse a username. I usually go to a word generator site and have it give me two random words for a username. For here i just banged the keyboard.
It's not paranoia when they really are out to get you. I would also like to point to DeGoogling and a basic brush-up on online security, just to make things safer.
You want to minimize the risks of violent stalker communists finding bits of information you've inadvertently exposed.
As Reddit showed so prominently, a favorite technique to prevent rational discourse is to attack the person instead of the argument. ("You post on T_D therefore your argument is invalid", or just mass-banning anyone posting on a sub you don't like.) This is partly why they desperately try to avoid anonymity in general, and why they like to make account creation as difficult as possible.
The less history you have, the less likely it is that someone can find something in your past to attack.
Why do you care what a deranged lunatic that judges your message based on your post history has to say, or thinks about you? Isn't that just a filter for those lunatics?
I don't.
I do care about otherwise-moderates who never see an argument because it got brigaded (or banned) over post history.
Hmm. I guess.
Yeah I didn't realize this either.
Thanks!
huh, it really works
I suggest not using your reddit account username on the win subs, though
Here's hoping this means we'll see an influx of users over here.
I only plan on browsing this place and T_D anyway. But I do appreciate the notice to make sure everything is on the up and up!
Huh, I didn't know that. Thanks OP!
It's the difference between what your browser sees and what the server's doing on the back end. Because the .win top-level domain does not uniquely identify the .win network, there's no way for your browser to know that it can send your kotakuinaction2.win cookie to thedonald.win but not to example.win. But on the back end, kotakuinaction2.win and thedonald.win might both point to the same server that accesses the same authentication database.
Which is frankly not a good thing. kotakuinaction2.thedonald.win might be unwieldy, but it ensures that somebody using the wrong subdomain (kotakuinaction3.thedonald.win) will just get an error from the server, while kotakuinaction3.win could potentially point to an attack site completely independent of the .win network.
