Oh right on. Thanks for the info!

@techno156 I'm glad you asked this. I wasn't sure how this worked either. Good to know it's boosts and downvotes. I wonder what the logic was behind that. I guess receiving a boost is a stronger indication of quality content, but I dont feel that upvotes should be ignored in that calculation

I def see the splintering as a positive. Personally, I dont feel I motivated to engage with a community once it starts to feel "too" big. There's a certain size where I feel unmotivated to engage. I know whatever I say there will get lost in the noise and there will be less meaningful communication. If any of my interests on a single server start to get too big where I feel like I'm just adding to the noise, I can always easily hop over to another instance where I can engage in a more meaningful way. I would bet there's a lot of other folks on here who will feel the same. While I'm sure it's likely that one instance for each topic might become the biggest "main" one, I dont think the smaller ones will be any worse off for it.

Love false knees!

Ahhh! Thanks for explaining!

That's the user account of the CEO of reddit

Imagine looking at an active dumpster fire and going "that's what I want for my home!"

Vivaldi for most things, hardened Firefox for private browsing, tor for sensitive searches

@updawg I'm also curious about those communities. Squabbles also made a 196 community so I'm seeing it in multiple places now and I feel so out of the loop!

Right on! Thanks for the thoughtful explanations. It's very helpful! All the context and details you offered were great! Very well articulated.

I lurked on reddit for a long time but almost never engaged. With all this transitioning, I'm feeling more inclined to participate here on kbin and I've gotta learn all the ropes!

Thanks again for your help.

So what about a post like this one? Is this something that should be marked as OC since it was my question and writing, or not because I didn't really create anything?

Without having used it before, it feels like it lends itself better to stuff that's been created (like artwork or a video or something along those lines) as opposed to just a post like this. Am I getting the right vibe of it here?

Good to know!
