Define constant sexual harassment , what's the context? Just in general? What do you classify as actual sexual harassment? Everyone has their fair share of shit to deal with, it's unfair to place priority on a cause due to gender

The thing about HN is that you can verify a lot of users on here by going to their profile and seeing who they are (for the most part), a feature Reddit does not have. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6938377

Nobody is going to pop into r/programming thinking they're a know it all and then somehow getting to the top by just making bullshit up about very complicated and technical topics. They will get shut down very quickly. https:

All the time, especially on any topic that is technical or requires actual knowledge. It's either the comment is misinformed, upvoted by other people who are also misinformed, or it is just scraping the bottom of the barrel for that to

You're better off going to a website entirely dedicated for that topic than sub section of a link aggregator. Why not just frequent http://www.gamedev.net/page/index.html or conceptart.org or something?

The key seems to be heavy moderation and relatively small community size. I wish there was a site like Reddit/HN but on an invite/application basis only to consistently provide good content.

They do apply to HN, but HN is still very small compared to Reddit, and it's just one page dedicated to one (albeit) broad topic. The difference between Reddit and HN is HN has a reputation amongst a certain culture, so users fight to

I use it for small subreddits too once in awhile. I'm posting about the main subreddits because that's the context of OP's post since her picture was posted in r/WTF.

My post was a bit emotional yeah, just wasted way too much time on it and it shaped me in a bad way. There are some great posts/comments in very niche subreddits, but when you compare that to the entirety of the website, it's a ve

When I was young and I found this site, I thought it was the best thing in the world. In my head, I could throw out every other site because all the links are here first! Then I saw the comments, and it's very easy to feel like you

Not going to lie I thought Reddit was the coolest and best site ever once I discovered it. Only after years of using it 24/7 have I realized how garbage it really is.

But that's the thing. There is no actual real reason to go on Reddit. If I want to read something about the French Revolution, I'm going to pick up a book about it by a qualified author that I'll research before hand. By simp

Not for a very long time. I made it using phonegap initially but it's not in the state I want it to be in. I'm learning OBJC & JAVA via teamtreehouse as fast as I can so I can start building it natively for Android and iPhone.
