I would enjoy a Reddit clone that had a simple sitewide ban on politics. The problem with politics is that it’s infectious: either a site keeps it highly contained and controlled or it slowly takes over most communities over time and dominates. This happened to Twitter and it’s happening to Reddit. I’m curious to see if it will happen to TikTok, which for most of its existence managed to avoid politics. HN has avoided this fate by being extremely selective about which political topics are allowed and frankly by banning most of them. My thinking is let Reddit continue down its course toward a site specifically for politics or politically-driven conversation about various topics and let all substantive non-political discourse move elsewhere.
