This kind of looks like a mashup of Reddit with G+'s circles. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing, although if that graphical tree view in "how-lyra-works" is the real UI it looks painful to navigate once it grows past a half-dozen comments. > As a result, subreddits need to be moderated, which mitigates - but does not always prevent - unpleasant behaviour. Many subreddits aren't moderated, and many of those work fine regardless. Downvoting is the first line of defence against unpleasantness. (Or the second, with the first being "stay well away from the default subs".) Moderation tends to be more about enforcing house rules over and above basic civility. > On Reddit, you have no privacy. Your entire post history is visible to anyone. Is that true of private subreddits too? (Genuine question, I've never had anything to do with them.)
