Subreply

I must say that this looks amazing on my phone. Spacing, font, sidebar, and lack of header are <i>chef’s kiss</i>. I would however potentially add a dismissible welcome text as a header to describe what I’m looking at.

I don&#x27;t know how to feel about this. While it seems like a great idea, looking at the front page I feel like looking at a door in a vandalized public toilet. Too much going on with barely any explanation, can&#x27;t easily tell (at least at first) what is grouped with what, the sidebar (on mobile) being present at all times is a serious waste of space.

I have no idea what is going on at this site.

The about page says: “English-only, global and public forum that has nothing in common with ancient and untrustworthy social networks.”<p>So they filter out any non-English text?<p>I also wonder what they mean with “untrustworthy” and how, specifically, this is and will remain different.

I am unable to grok the interface of discussions&#x2F;threads&#x2F;replies.. (on mobile)

&gt; an user<p>I guess the canonical English dialect pronounces it as &quot;ooser&quot;? Weird choice for us Americans.<p>I want to try it, but if it&#x27;s all manual approval, I&#x27;ll never pass. I can&#x27;t get a legit email address via Tor.

&quot;that has nothing in common with ancient and untrustworthy social networks.&quot;<p>It has a lot in common... human beings talking over a distance. &gt; No empathy, and a lot of reduction and generalization.

Seems like 4chan x Twitter<p>I do appreciate the return to the message board, thread-based format. But let&#x27;s be real there&#x27;s nothing new under the sun

The design looks great, however I only see the replies, but not the main thread?<p>Everything is out of context.<p>Personally I think HN needs a bit of a modern design. But it doesn&#x27;t really affect me because i use Glider, an awesome android client.

the navigation might benifit from the css scrollbar-gutter: stable. it&#x27;s kind of distracting how the content jumps a bit left and right when you navigate between for example about and news, because the scrollbar appears.

Wanted to try it, but when I try to complete my profile my emoji is apparently invalid, and my city as well. It&#x27;s just a regular city, though.

I&#x27;m happy to see people exploring further now that we know a bit more about the effects of initial social networks, particularly their downsides from both personal and network level. We&#x27;ve barely made it off the beachhead IMO.<p>The same w&#x2F;blogs which pretty much stopped evolving after Tumbler &amp; Medium.

I&#x27;m curious what was the approach to get enough users to actually use this, also noticed there&#x27;s dark mode, but I don&#x27;t see a setting for it. Guessing it&#x27;s for registered users?<p>tangent: Why are there still a lot of sites not doing dark mode first. Discord did a great job of this.

This is blazing fast! If only other larger social media sites could be as responsive...

It’s a bit confusing at first but I have to say I actually love the design. It’s a text heavy site and it works super well. Good luck to the creators

Is there a blog post that delves deeper into the motivations for some of the restrictions and technical decisions?

Looks pretty cool. Most impressive part is how you built the user base. Open to sharing?

Is this like a global threaded #general slack channel?

How do you fold-up conversations like on Reddit ?

What is this and is there a version of it that doesn&#x27;t try to assault my eyes?

English only? The fuck?

I think this will be overrun by self help finance gurus, in short order. By the looks of it is has already started.
