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!

    I wish threaded comments would nest more even though that only plays well with desktop usage. It was the nicest feature of reddit to follow threaded conversations with ease.

    I think the biggest issue is going to be discoverability of the largest community for a specific interest. For example, if people are interested in Diablo IV they are going to want to swarm to the instance with the largest community. Making that easy to find will grow communities very quickly.

      Yeah, agreed. It’s nice to see a place like this grow, though, so I’m sure more usability/readability design tweaks will probably fall in at some point. What I’m finding odd about my own experience re: the threaded layout is that when I first joined reddit, I had trouble following along because I was used to the forum style, with quotes to call out threaded replies, and now here we are in reverse.
