- mrec 11y agoJust read their About page, can't see how it's significantly different to Facebook or Twitter. It's still a proprietary network with all the Balkanization and opportunities for abuse that implies, isn't it?

- ddw 11y agoI tried Sublevel when it started, but wasn't getting much out of it. I posted a lot, followed a bunch of strangers and tried to have conversations with them. Eventually I stopped checking it at all and forgot about it. I think the people on it appreciate the qualities that you mention, but unfortunately those features don't add up to a burgeoning and intriguing social network. Perhaps Facebook and Twitter are the last massive timeline-oriented social networks and there just isn't anything else innovative to do.

- Detrus 11y ago2630 lines of code to run Sublevel or posted by users? A small codebase is interesting for nerds. And yea it is snappy.
