    I don't say this enough, but I am so fucking happy this website exists. My reddit browsing has gone down to a minimum (me_irl, notion sub, and that one art sub I mod are the only things keeping me there). It's been great to be able to talk to comrades and not be constantly mad when I access the internet.

        I wish this was just a fucking Vbulletin instead of this half-arsed reddit thing

            there are some pros and cons, but the worst thing about traditional forums is that there's no sub-threading, so you have to scroll through 20+ pages of a thread to see 8 back-and-forth replies

            I'd like to believe that zoomers are capable of figuring out the superior method of posting. They just haven't had the chance imo.

        I am too used to reddit to mind the difference in format, all my experiences with bulletin forums were not pleasant, tbh.

      I finally went through my reddit multis and made one with just the handful of subs I still care about, instead of going to all like a pigeon. So the existence of this site has actually managed to make reddit better for me too.

      Also /r/hybridanimals just had weevil week and it was really cool.

        that's what I ought to do. Make me_irl and a bunch of other meme multis and all my art resources into one. So I never have to see anything else.

        me_irl and art comms should be a right, not a privilege. we need a revolution in the way that the chapo.mods fund new comms :yes:

        I'll happily mod the art comm, I got podcasts, resources, image packs and discussion posts I'd like to share, and i saw that the discord had plenty of active artists. I think me_irl would be nice. My one big question is if I won't be adding to the problem of "more inactive comms". I think one of the challenges we have to overcome is what's causing possible inactivity in various comms and how to increase that.

        Have ya'll thought of adding "extra hard upvotes" similar to what reddit gold does? Instead of money, perhaps have a daily cooldown, so you can only "extra upvote" one or two threads a day?

            I think a heavier weight in the sorting algorithm would be nice since most feature threads seem to have important community info, we don't wanna override that with Based_ball bits (no offense based).
