Exactly what the title says.
What has your experience been on any of those platforms? Which captures more of your time? Why?
I’m relatively new here but I’ve read a little on the reddit-like platforms. I (mostly) understand what’s a fork of what or what some of the technical differences are, but I’m curious about the vibes and communities.
I think they wanted to see people giving others the benefit of the doubt, instead of making snap judgments. It’s very easy to get into heated arguments online that could be avoided with simple clarification and communication.
If someone is simply bad at expressing themselves, the extra “room” can make all the difference in the world. If they really are a jerk, though, all you’re doing is giving them enough rope to hang themselves. Win/win!
Then again, you’re talking to someone who hasn’t visited Beehaw in almost a year. I don’t know how their moderation has changed.
