(Update) 10/11/24: Should've written this a long while ago, but I'm no longer affiliated with Project Estelle/Phantasm, though I still wish them all the best, and will continue to link to their site and Discord server, as I still find them quite interesting (despite being quite inactive).
So, today wasn't actually too bad, I've been on this mission to revive a friends server after 3 years of silence, and I think it's been going quite well. I posted invite links on every .onion site possible, though most success came through the threads I made on /x/. To an outsider, it really may not seem like that big of a deal, but considering how long this server has been silent (4 YEARS!), to say that I'm excited is... a big understatement. We're currently at 114 members, which is quite a leap compared to the 98 members we had just two days ago. I look forward to the coming weeks of this community, and hope I can make it grow much more than it is now. Rosen, our leader seems about just as happy as I am with these developments. I'm glad things are finally changing with the server.
