Just to add to the list of alternatives, I've been working on a platform with a bit of a different take on the online community space. It's sort of a Reddit/Discord/Patreon hybrid. We've built a place to monetarily incentivize ownership over the communities created on the platform. It feels like the people curating the communities should be rewarded for the work that they do.
Here's an example community: https://sociables.com/community/Sports/board/trending https://sociables.com/community/Sports/board/trending
- danudey 3y agoI haven't dug into it too much, and the UI seems a bit cluttered and confusing (e.g. when I click into a community I get a huge amount of random information instead of just some posts), but in terms of structure this is the closest I've seen to something that actually understands what Reddit actually is (a community of communities) rather than just creating a huge bucket full of posts with hashtags and calling it a day. Good work!
- dsir 3y agoAppreciate the feedback. There is definitely a bit of a learning curve to our platform coming from a place like reddit. It's intentionally not a 1-to-1 copy. We're kind of building a Discord/Reddit/Patreon hybrid that combines the best parts of each platform to try and bring a bit of innovation into the community platform space. A focus of ours is to help the community owners monetize.
