MODERATORS
That's what I'm here for lol. I mean this is how reddit was when I first started there. Same with digg
This place reminds me so much of early reddit. It's been a strangely nostalgic experience so far. The part of that which I'm enjoying the most, is that commenters are more polite to each other as far as I've seen
Yeah, and there are apps. I don't have to drag out my laptop.
Everyone writes in clear, concise and grammatically correct sentences too lol. It’s slightly surreal.
It's always the ones who are willing to experiment a little who are the first adopters. We're always looking for something better, and as a result we often are the first to arrive, and the first to leave, we browse for different reasons than just "going with the crowd"
This is what people always miss. Generally, sites become popular because niche subcultures form outside of the "big" websites as they no longer really serve their purpose of connecting to like minded individuals. They never "start big", they generally snowball from small hardcore users to larger more generalized userbases over time.
