That homepage looks like someone made a wordpress site for a megachurch. Gaudy as fuck. When service doesn't get design this early and instead just crams everything they can into a page, it's good sign they're lacking taste, and that's something that can't really be overcome. It's like they're so unsure about their own service that they feel they need to overcompensate by talking about all the features it has instead of just naturally showing them.
And points for hourly check ins? Modals reminding me to install apps when reading posts (got one when trying to read the terms of service, too)? In fact, you apparently can't visit the groups link without getting the pop up. I just want to try your damn site. Ugh. 18 MBs of content on load? Don't do that to the web.
Despite it's own limitations, Yours is lot, lot cleaner.
Compare: http://www.scientology.org/ http://www.scientology.org/ (is that the same font in the header?)
After some more searching around, it's like the same audience repeated across all of these sites ("alt right" and cryptocurrency obsessed). Stefan Molyneux one of the main users of minds and also one of the first users of Yours? You guys are setting yourselves up for failure if you don't diversify your audience quick.

Here's the third most followed user, "truth":

Complete with
"Antifa victim, Kiara Robles, speaks out about political violence in Berkeley."
"Hillary Clinton blames everyone from James Comey to Bernie Sanders for her blistering defeat to Donald Trump"
"Why Did World Trade Center Building 7 Fall? New Study Claims Gov’t Story Is False"
I hear r/conspiracy is nice this time of year, but there's not Bitcoin to be made if that gets big, yeah?
- yafujifide 9y agoWe suspect that is not the real Stefan Molyneux. We will have flagging and moderation to deal with this soon. Also we will allow more auth options so people can prove who they are (twitter auth, e.g.)
- splintercell 9y agoRight now nearly all new social networks (esp the one which promise free speech) will see an influx from alt right and conservative refugees. Dtube (distributed Youtube) is see it for yourself. People are complaining about alt-right and conservative refugees being the early adopters of any distributed/decentralized/free speech platform: https://www.reddit.com/r/dtube/comments/6zlza1/please_dont_make_dtube_an_ideological_nightmare/ https://www.reddit.com/r/dtube/comments/6zlza1/please_dont_m...
