I wanted to get a pulse check on how new members are finding the general experience/website. Is it more confusing than Reddit or are you finding the instance system a better way of doing things as it can give you more freedom of where you choose to create an account?
I’m a new user myself but have found the experience to remind me of Reddit back in the day, lol. It’s definitely giving me old-school yet modern vibes and it’s great to see something that isn’t Reddit growing in popularity!
I find the multiple instances very confusing and also have concerns about how this will split up communities. Like right now there aren’t many “niche” communities, but if there were, say I would want to browse something like /r/eu4, but there are like 4 different ones, even if i am subscribed to all of them, how would I like… browse them all at the same time to get “all eu4 content”. Like it seems very problematic to do something like that.
Multiple communities is an issue there that needs communication between mods to work out. Ideally when you have 2 100% identical communities, the mods from both communities should come together and merge their communities into one. I think this was issue Reddit as well and essentially serves as growing pains for any new platform that requires moderation.
