I am not aware of any site like this that has been done successfully. The only slightly comparable ones are like…kiwi farms, saidit, and they are shitholes run by men.

Keeping us deprived of time and money is not just a symptom but also an aim of how women are oppressed worldwide. That makes it almost impossible for us to succeed on very large and demanding projects like this. Some women manage to succeed if there is male support for what they are doing—this is why we see so many prominent Republican women and some successful businesswomen.

For a truly feminist project, there is only male (and a decent amount of female) opposition. What support there is is from a minority of a notoriously economically and temporally deprived demographic.

And the onslaught is often brutal. I highly recommend listening to the FDS podcast about why they stopped moderating the subreddit. Reddit didn’t have to take it down because the harassment was so extreme and demoralizing that eventually the admins couldn’t keep up.

I think the future may not be a public website. I think it may be private Facebook groups, some occasional subreddits, the comments of a Substack, but I’m hoping that the site closing may be the push for some of us to begin meeting in person. There is perhaps even more danger there, but I think also the potential for more impactful action, and the harassment will be more visible for normies to see and notice because it will be physical and in person.
