  1. Moderation. Reddit circa 2015 with its cheerful encouragement of bad actors and fear of censorship is the opposite of what i want. I need a community that isnt afraid to drop the hammer on groups that make the site unwelcome. There is no place in a decent community for racists, sexists, homophobes, or transphobes.
  2. Activity. I need a reason to access it every day and train my brain to access it and worthwhile, engaging, entertaining, and educational content is what I'm looking for anywhere on the internet.
  3. Engagement. I love the feel of web 2.0 style forums and that included a solid bit of engagement in what now would be considered comment threads. Its one of the only places on earth i feel comforable talking so an engaged userbase is ideal.
