I am a reddit refugee. Keep seeing that this is supposed to be somehow better than Reddit. As far as I can tell, it follows a similar format, less restrictive on posts being removed I suppose. But It looks like people still get down vote brigaded on some communities. So I’m curious, how it’s better?
The main point is that nobody owns the whole, so nobody can fuck it whole up, not even admins - like Steve “Greedy Pigboy” Huffman did with Reddit.
Past that, it’s mostly community tendencies and software differences, not “hard” contrasts:
Additionally people often say that echo chambers here are stronger, but I might not be the best person to ponder about this (as I’m left-wing in both social and economical matters, so… if there’s an echo chamber I’m part of it).
