Origins
TheDonald.win was created on November 21, 2019, by moderators of r/The_Donald. After Reddit quarantined r/The_Donald, moderators of the subreddit promoted TheDonald.win through the use of sticky posts. Moderators touted the site as a backup to the subreddit in the event that it was banned. The promotion caused the site to rapidly gain users. Another surge of users was caused on June 29th, 2020 when the subreddit was banned by Reddit in a purge of around 2000 communities.
