We've actually done a few things to try to deal with those issues. We don't have any "default" communities or a universal front page or anything like that, because we believe that does lead to a lot of low quality conversations and groupthink. Instead, you only join communities you specifically opt into, and hopefully that way each community only has people who are actually passionate about those topics and discussions become more in depth and informed.
(Cofounder here, btw, happy to answer any of your questions.)
Edit: I just converted over from being a lurker and created my account to respond here, and apparently I'm commenting too fast. I'll respond to other comments when I can, sorry. :/ Feel free to email me at kaela@imzy.com if you want to talk more though!
- keithwhor 10y agoHey! I'm the author of Nodal [1] and I think this could be a really neat platform for open source communities. Gitter / Slack tend to be the default for live, realtime chat and GitHub is central for issues and contributions, but I'm looking for something fun to direct developers towards where we can organize community events and the like. I'm a startup founder myself and would love to connect with the founding team, is there an ideal way to reach out? [1] http://github.com/keithwhor/nodal http://github.com/keithwhor/nodal
- kwgardner 10y agoAwesome! Shoot me an email here and let's talk: kaela@imzy.com (Also, sorry it took me so long to reply--apparently I was commenting too fast because I just created my account. Whoops.)
