Are there any alternatives to Facebook that provide similar services without all the seemingly attached BS?
Telegram, but I can't figure out how to find people or forums there. It does allow you to upload a fair range of media types without an account on an external service. And it works properly on my old phone, which Mudcat doesn't.
Reddit ought to help but its cult of anonymity is nuts.
By clicking on the User Name, you will requery the forum for that user. You will see everything that he or she has posted with that Mudcat name.
By clicking on the Thread Name, you will be sent to the Forum on that thread as if you selected it from the main Mudcat Forum page.
* Click on the linked number with * to view the thread split into pages (click "d" for chronologically descending).
By clicking on the Subject, you will also go to the thread as if you selected it from the original Forum page, but also go directly to that particular message.
By clicking on the Date (Posted), you will dig out every message posted that day.
