  • Nay.

    Provided the moderators on sh.itjust.works feel capable of dealing with any outright hate speech or harassment from that community, I think most of us are big enough people we can deal with hearing differing view points. If someone has a big enough problem with a single user or community, there is always a user-side block as well. My only reservation would be if the degree of spam/harassment is over taxing our community moderators. I recall how many of us in sh.itjust.works were offended when Beehaw defederated us – for the same sort of reasons (too much spam, too much harassment, the wrong kind of people, etc etc etc).



  • It’s almost certainly not quite what you’re looking for, but Camping with Steve https://www.youtube.com/@campingwithsteve tends to be just a dude camping. He doesn’t talk technical stuff, doesn’t really talk gear, knots, or anything like that – but does show how easy it can be to get into camping with basic gear from Walmart (or Canadian Tire in his case) and camp pretty much anywhere. I like to recommend it to people who are fairly new to camping because I think he helps dispel the survivalist myth about camping having to be hardcore.

    That said, it’s definitely not quite what you’re looking for.

    Depending on how much you want to spend, I’ve found GoRuck’s products to be absolutely bomb proof in the past, and their GR2 should meet your size requirements https://www.goruck.com/collections/gr2.

    There are a could quirks to them though – they unzip completely open, but are a single storage compartment design. I mention it because it’s a design I absolutely love but if you are looking for a lot of interior compartmentalization maybe look elsewhere.

    The biggest potential downside (side from cost) is the tacticool styling and the weight (although that weight is due to the durable fabrics). I should also note that I have bought from them several times (for myself, and then for family), but not since COVID and the consequent effects on many businesses profitability. As of when I last bought they were still well-made and we’ve beaten the heck out of them with no damages.
