Various external forums such as [[incels.co]] and [[incelistan.net]] welcomed [[Braincels]] refugees, but a second mass exodus to external forums is unlikely as r/Braincels users already knew the existence of these external forums, and r/Braincels was never really much of a solid community at any point in time.
