This post screams classic Friday afternoon news dump to me. But at this point, it doesn't really matter. I'm beginning to grow very tired of Reddit. When I signed up almost 9 years ago, it felt like a community where I was surrounded by others who were genuinely curious, helpful, and smarter than me. Now it feels like a slightly better Facebook, even if you exclude the constantly interjected political comments. The HN community feels to me today what Reddit felt like 9 years ago.
- macintux 3y agoI genuinely don’t know where I’d head next if HN shut down or otherwise jumped the shark. FB was never a viable option for me, Twitter got Musked, and Reddit never held much appeal. Guess I’d have to learn how to Mastodon.
- slowmovintarget 3y agoBack to Slashdot?
- weard_beard 3y agoDigg sits up in its grave and looks around.
- fsflover 3y agoMastodon.
- ktosobcy 3y agoLet's go back to usenet :)
- kazinator 3y agoMastodon isn't a replacement for forums. People mostly toot past each other; threads don't happen that much. When threads get big they are hard to follow; there is no easily discernible tree structure.
- slashtab 3y agoMany old redditors are jumping to https://tildes.net https://tildes.net it feels like old reddit, don't know which direction it would go. It is invite only.
- BoxOfRain 3y agoAnyone know where to get an invite? Sounds like something I'd quite like to participate in.

- Streetrat 3y agoWould love an invite too! Looks like a great community
- mazdayasna 3y agoThis looks very promising. I'm surprised this is my first time hearing of it.
