I don't think proselytizing is necessary anymore; we've got enough folks on here now to get a sustainable community going, other people gradually finding their way over here over the next year or two (much as it happened with digg) is much better than a crazy server-destroying / spam-proliferating rush.

Reddit was perfectly enjoyable a decade ago with 10% as many users, we don't need very many of them to be able to offer a worthy reddit replacement to anybody who seeks one. (plus I suspect within 6 months or so we'll have way better apps than reddit does)

100%. the level of comments kbin are blowing my mind, actual discussion. debate. different perspectives. people writing full sentences and explaining their thoughts.

instead of people being banned and insulted for having a differing opinion. or being told they are mean and bad people.

the 3rd grader level of discourse on reddit didn't exist 10+ years ago. it happened only after the site because a household name.

Maybe it's silly, but i love that I haven't seen a single one-word reply such as "*their".

EDIT: omg, what about those infinite threads of "this" or forced puns? Haven't seen those either (and I love bad puns, but those usually contributed very little)
