- 50656E6973 8y agoCommunities with too many users end up as cesspools regardless of moderatiom
- dcbadacd 8y agoIf you word it like that of course. But "many" users is totally handleable without becoming a cesspool, HN is a good example.
- kortilla 8y agoRight, but HN is moderated with a very narrow scope of rules by the moderators. The rest is all community driven. dang isn’t running around pulling articles because they don’t fit a narrative
- 50656E6973 8y agoReddit has about 100x as many unique monthly active users as HN
