There’s a high chance I’m staying here. I was part of the Digg migration and this place feels how Reddit used to feel at first. I stopped contributing to the site regularly in 2013 because the size of some communities gave me anxiety and there was a rule for every fucking thing.

Ahh a fellow Digg migrant. I kneel.

Yeah, this tbh. I understand there's got to be basic rules, but shit like title formats and most of the time your post not going through (because of X automatically enforced rule like automatic hiding or deletion if you put a certain word or phrase in the title/post body) is just maddening. One time I did a post and the message the mod sent me explaining what was wrong with my post was almost as long as the post itself lol. I really hope this doesn't start happening with reddit alternatives.

And yeah, the sheer size of reddit makes it almost impossible to interact with people on large subreddits. Especially if you're commenting on a post that's like 12 hours old on a large subreddit, your comment will never get seen just because of the deluge of already existing comments.
