It has some flaws like a lot of ai built in, forced ai tldrs you cant turn off, daily leaderboards for top posters/commenters, but I still like it more than reddit’s current form, but thats prob becuase it isnt public yet
Ah you got the early access for a couple bucks? I’m bummed I missed the window.
I have a lot of things to say having been in the software, journalism domain and thought heavily about conceptualizing what such a platform may look like for the betterment of society. Jimmy Wales has been trying, too. Was on their discord for a bit but I was a little skeptical of their direction, even if noble.
Not really, mostly bad decisions, lost all brand identity and uniqeness when they took away the shovel and tomb animations replacing it with basic upvote/downvote
It is NOT difficult to build a superior product right now. But you’re battling the legal side of Big Tech’s takeover to get infrastructure/marketing. Enshittification demands that the people can’t find the incentive or will to leave, and were firmly there as society.
