One specific, general recommendation: add pagination and browsing by date/cost to sites, instead of just relying on infinite scrolling. I'm often interested in older/cheaper/less-popular articles/products/bits

That's the kind of video countdown I like: quick and over in less than two minutes. No long, overdrawn filler in between each item. At the same time, I'd like to see an article that explains why he considers one plastic chair sup

So, it's not related to whether a comment is grayed out, but to how deep it is and how recently it was posted. That's helpful to know. Thanks!

Maybe there's only a handful of "regular people" getting cancelled... but that's enough to create a chilling effect, scaring others into compliance with convention. A good example might be Walter Palmer, the hunter who k

I believe Mr. Duruk is essentially complaining about false advertising from an entity that's commonly been known as trustworthy. I'd say there's enough evidence to entertain that complaint.

"Defund the police" is very unfortunate terminology. It is viscerally appealing to the groups most upset about police brutality, but can scare away potential allies, who might get the impression that "defund" means doing

You mentioned Hacker News in passing. HN has public profiles indeed, but most of them don't have much information. Either people don't want to fill them out or they don't care to, possibly because they just want to do other

It'd be helpful for you to spell out what exactly will be public. Even the simple fact that a so-and-so has a Triplebyte profile might be an unwelcome involuntary public disclosure to that person, if they're a current user who di

Isn't showing up shirtless to a video chat with a stranger a huge violation of trust in itself? I'd be much more inclined to consider "shirtlessness" (to give this phenomenon a short name) to be a sign of aggression, ra

There's some overlap, though not full equivalency. Stubs presumably fall in line with Wikipedia's editorial vision, even if they haven't been fleshed out into full entries. The entries I'm referring to are mostly ones

If Wikipedia is to retain a deletionist editorial cultural, I'd at least like to be able to access the history for deleted entries and read old versions of such entries. As it stands, those entries seem to be permanently removed from

If that's the case, I'd prefer a two-tiered Wikipedia over a deletionist Wikipedia. In such a Wikipedia, each page could be clearly-labeled as either an encyclopedia-quality entry or as a "wannabe" encyclopedia entry.
