Some of us remember when Reddit was a lot like this. Smaller, a bit more techie, lots more laid back than it is today.
I'm also a little scared that this will end up like Reddit. Not totally scared, because there's no single company trying to maximise your engagement with rage bait and dopamine. But a little scared what 100 million users would bring.
Feels like the circle of life.
