For real. If you’re not inclined to join either the leftist or the tech instances, there’s not much point being here. It’s just a clunkier version of Reddit with fewer people and even fewer original posts.

It doesn’t even do anything different from Reddit even though the opportunity to set itself apart is there. I mean, lemmygrad and hexbear constantly post new megathreads for casual discussion so why not implement a chat feature directly onto the platform? Why can’t we follow a post? Why can’t we create different subscription boxes? (I’m pretty sure Reddit lets you do that actually)

idk it’s just lame that we’re apparently content with being reddit jr.
