Yeah, me too. I was getting tired of the Reddit bubble I have been pushed in to for a while now. This here is such a refreshment...

Welcome!

Bob Dylan once proclaimed that who is not busy being born is busy dying. You'll probably find us busy being born over here, but I consider that to be a good thing. We're very happy to have you here helping us out with it. :)

Welcome! Most of us came over during the Reddit API fiasco a couple years ago. It's a lot nicer here. You'll notice the difference the more you post or comment. It's not like screaming into the void, like you get on Reddit.
