Ruqqus

Ruqqus is an open-source platform for independent internet communities.

Features

• Moderator power limited by design
• No ads
• US-based servers
• Mobile friendly
• Dark mode

Why Ruqqus?

A moderator has the power to "kick" a user-submitted post from their community (guild) but never delete it off the platform entirely. Kicked posts end up in a catch-all guild called +general. Content that violates the site-wide policy is removed by the core team.

Moderators, called guild masters, can only moderate a maximum of 10 guilds.

We do not serve ads. Put simply, advertisements lead to censorship. Ruqqus is funded out-of-pocket by the core team and through donations from users.

Ruqqus is responsive and mobile browser-friendly.

An account is not required to browse Ruqqus but we recommend creating one.

Docker Deployment

In order to build your docs, you need to add the following to your hosts file:

127.0.0.1    ruqqus.localhost

Before deploying, make sure to compile .scss files in ruqqus/assets/style/ with a package called "sass" (or ruby-sass)

To deploy the stack with docker, simply use:

docker-compose up

The database will automatically be seeded with an administrator account; user ruqqie and password password.

Mac

Install dependencies

$ pip3 install -r requirements.txt

$ brew install redis

$ brew install postgres

Linux

Upon installation, trying to submit a post will cause a 404 error. You have to create a guild first (to achieve this perhaps temporarily remove the 250 rep restriction on making guilds). You also need to make sure the badwords table is populated.

Note: When trying to run Ruqqus locally, make sure to use a tagged release version. The reason this is necessary is that the file schema.txt is not always updated, which will cause Ruqqus to crash. If after first setting up Ruqqus you are getting a 500/Internal Server Error on pages because of database errors, this is most likely why.
