One thing I really liked reddit for was reading news and talking about it. I have stopped posting or commenting there now and am in the process of slowly wiping my posting history… but I still browse it for current events a decent bit as it’s just a lot more active than over here.

I think my new goal is that whenever I see a news post over there I would really like to comment about, I’m gonna post it over here in a relevant magazine and start a comment in that new Kbin thread instead. Seems like a really easy way to nudge myself into getting more content going over here.

Just kind of a Kbin meta shower thought I guess. Cheers.

    Solid approach and a noble cause.

    Always bums me out to see an interesting article with 50 up votes and no comments discussing it. I think comment content is a big miss right now (but when it does happen it’s usually more elevated than anything on reddit for the last 5 years).

    Cheers.

      Yeah I agree and I think this is definitely one of those situations where we have to be the change we’d like to see. It’s gonna be a slow build and it takes people like us to do it.
