I think if yc fell, communities may segregate a bit into different interest groups.
I’m sure there’s a few yc quality subreddit’s also, If you can stand the user hostile ux
- ehhhhhhhhh 4y agoThis is similar to my experience. Slashdot, digg, reddit, then HN. HN hasn't really declined (I think I matured) but I still find some nuggets. I'd like to see a group like early $PLACE on something like IPFS or whatever to keep the bar high enough.
- LordDragonfang 4y ago>If you can stand the user hostile ux old.reddit.com is still available, which is only slightly user hostile. There's a setting to default to it if you're logged in, otherwise it's pretty trivial to either install an extension or write a userscript to automatically redirect you to that subdomain.
- brigandish 4y agoThere's also Teddit[1], which I use most of the time I want to look at Reddit now. It's been discussed on HN before[2]. [1] https://teddit.net/ https://teddit.net/ [2] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25310206 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25310206
- FractalHQ 4y agoThat is one of the slowest websites I’ve ever tried to use! Too bad to, because it’s a great idea.
- Markoff 4y agowhat would be those subs? at least on mobile you can use Boost or Sync, but on desktop it's more difficult, really only old.reddit.com and experience is vastly inferior to mobile apps
