An open letter the community co-signs and nobody can quietly delete.
You have something to say and a community ready to stand behind it. Instead of a petition that is just a row in someone's database, you publish an open letter, your supporters co-sign it with a note, and it becomes a permanent, public record.
My petition is just data on someone else's server.
Support evaporates the moment the moment passes.
I cannot prove who actually stood with me.
A concrete example.
You address a letter to a decision-maker. 5,000 people co-sign with a rating and a note. The first edition is sent to the recipient automatically.
Turn 'we signed' into a record nobody can quietly delete.
