This seems to be another reddit clone. All the content appears to be technical
Veraticus ( @Veraticus@lib.lgbt ) English15•1 year agoIt seemed to me like a much less active Hacker News (and indeed was intended to be a replacement for that community iirc).
fossilesque ( @fossilesque@mander.xyz ) English8•1 year agoCame here to say this. It’s ok, but often mirrors HackerNews.
TeamAssimilation ( @TeamAssimilation@infosec.pub ) English7•1 year agoAlso, their community is very elitist. You won’t get access unless someone invites you, or you connect to their IRC, give them your GitHub and grovel for a week in their channel.
fossilesque ( @fossilesque@mander.xyz ) English11•1 year agoYeah, it’s the people who think HN is “too mainstream.” lmao
jrandomhacker ( @jrandomhacker@beehaw.org ) English5•1 year agoYeah it’s definitely an HN clone, and that’s much-needed because the orange site is a hellhole. I like their invite-tree system, and need to finish tracking down an invite.
azdle ( @azdle@news.idlestate.org ) English4•1 year agoI’m on it and have been for some years. Not a large contributor by any means, but I find it interesting enough to fairly consistently read. It’s a community that’s definitely got some quirks, but it has managed to stay broadly technical and not become a swamp of memes and snappy comebacks, which is sadly impressive these days.
