I wanted to get a pulse check on how new members are finding the general experience/website. Is it more confusing than Reddit or are you finding the instance system a better way of doing things as it can give you more freedom of where you choose to create an account?
I’m a new user myself but have found the experience to remind me of Reddit back in the day, lol. It’s definitely giving me old-school yet modern vibes and it’s great to see something that isn’t Reddit growing in popularity!
Considering Reddit’s desire to IPO and some of the comments on the spez AMA, I wonder how long reddit would really have an edge on NSFW content. It wouldn’t surprise me if they consider slashing that content similar to Imgur in trying to appease advertisers.
I’d be interested in hearing someone’s experience in moderating NSFW subreddits, since to my untrained eye that seems like it could be a grueling job. Not to mention mitigating legal risks associated with users uploading illegal content to a self-hosted instance.
