The old-school forum that originated A24's 'Backrooms' is embracing its role as an idea incubator where "fandoms can grow organically."

        It’s a collaborative writing project that, just like the backrooms, originated in 4chan. It’s a wiki about a fictional secret government organization (The SCP foundation) that contains anomalies to protect normalcy.

        It has become huge over the years. Definitely check it out if you enjoy scifi and/or (Lovecraftian)horror.

      I think that’s impossible to monetize due to the licensing rights or something of the SCP wiki

        See things like Control that are blatantly SCP inspired but don’t use the name

          And “There is no anti-memetics division”, which is just a sanitized version of qntm’s original story on the wiki.

        True, but that can be worked out as well.
