ComLink, Germany was one of the earlier organizations involved in building networks for online communication of the alternative sector in Germany. According to an essay titled In the beginning there was FIDO, "Fidonet gateways were installed at WebNetworks (Canada), IGC (United States), GreenNet (UK), Laneta (Mexico), Comlink (Germany), Nordnet (Sweden) and Worknet/Sangonet (South Africa)." The CL network was a collection of Internet forums based on Usenet technology, which were also accessible via several web portals and via RSS web feed . In terms of content, the CL network was committed to grassroots journalism and concepts of left-wing counterpublicity . A volunteer editorial team sifted through incoming press releases, reports and contributions from users and the media and made them available, sorted by department. The German Wikipedia page - see translation below - notes that the decision to switch off the network was made in 2015.
