Hmm. So as a different perspective, I joined because people were talking about it as a Reddit alternative. Reddit never clicked with me as it just felt like a whirlpool feeding into a meat-grinder. I figured I’d give this other thing a try, and it’s has felt more like a ye-olde forum where I can actually say things and get responses back. Though discussions still don’t seem to have a lot of longevity. Still, it’s kinda nice, and I’ll stick around for a bit. :)

I’m not here for the memes or news though… So I don’t really have any experience with the issues the OP says, and I’m probably some weird minority?
