I'm working on a site: https://skimur.com https://skimur.com I plan on making like Twitter, but "followers" "vote" for "tweets" so that the collective community sees the best content. Reddit isn't really meant for personal usage. Subs are typically topic related there.

The "next big thing" won't have voting. It's too easily gamed and leads to groupthink in the worst way. Inb4 "HN has voting but no groupthink". It has both in large quantities.
