I have taken over the ownership of this magazine/community as it was classified as abandoned.
Atheists, who are one of the most persecuted groups in the world, deserve a safe place in the fediverse, and I will do my best to keep this place civil. For now, I shall moderate this place myself, but considering the nature of the magazine, will appoint more moderators in the future, if necessary.
