I, much like basically everyone here, have been avoiding Reddit when possible, and the content here just doesn’t hit the same. My fried dopamine receptors were certainly screaming for stimulation early on but now I feel an urge to touch grass and breathe fresh air. What is this? Am I dying? I still hate the angry lightbulb in the sky.
In all seriousness though, I’ll admit that I was kind of addicted to Reddit and now I don’t want to go near it. Maybe this will turn a new leaf for me. If not here, I’ll probably find some other way to satiate my dopamine receptors through more productive means.
I’m finding I post and comment at like ten times the rate I did on reddit. The actual user interactions over here are MILES better.
That much is true. I love how the upvote/downvote system works on Kbin much better, since there isn’t just one total karma sum number.
It didn’t even occur to me that I can see the downvote count, wow. That’s how Reddit used to be too, so it didn’t register as different, I guess.
@cody has been doing some work revamping parts of the UI, including the voting buttons. See his post here and let him know what you think.
