+# Rust Reddit Fediverse (to be renamed later)
+
+We have a twitter alternative (mastodon), a facebook alternative (friendica), so let's build a reddit alternative in the fediverse.
+
+## Goals / TODOs
+
+- Come up with a name / codename.
+- Must have communities.
+- Must have threaded comments.
+- Should the comments / votes be static, or feel like a chat, like [flowchat?](https://flow-chat.com). 
+- How does voting work? Should we go back to the old way of showing up and downvote counts? Or just a score?
+- Should it allow bots?
+- Decide on tech to be used: I prefer Actix, Diesel for the back end, inferno, typescript and bootstrap for the front end. 
+- How do we do the activitypub stuff?
+-
