It takes a lot to recognize how easy it is to operate and host a text-based forum, and perhaps it's best to spread them around the area.

Reddit voting patterns is almost all about popularity. People can't wait to get their upvotes and make the front page of their topic.

Literally the only thing i upvote on this site are any posts my gf makes lol

Postmill shows that for $25/year hosting cost anyone willing to ask 10 hours of questions on a forum can be the admin/owner of a forum similar to Reddit with a few thousand active users.

This was always true, even if a little higher costs for the reddit open source software overhead (higher RAM), before they closed it.

What makes reddit popular is the brand, the big name, and your question about "Why do people think Raddle and Voat are the only alternatives to Reddit?" - how active is Voat really? You think even 5% of Reddit readers know about Voat? Which less than 1% know of Raddle?

Reddit voting patterns is almost all about popularity. People can't wait to get their upvotes and make the front page of their topic. Dominating over others in conversation and votes is a big big behavior pattern when there are millions and millions of users reading your 20 words. It matters very little how honest, truthful, and sincere you are - as bots can even repost reddit topics with previous comments and get the upvotes. It's all about the size the crowd, style, timing, and that chance to catch the hot MEME social wave while the camera is rolling.

Well, perhaps, feel the new wave of change: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojf18wT_Xtk

If you know your way around irc, it's on synirc, #just_post

If you don't you may want to wait till devtesla writes that tutorial post. I'm a bit short on spoons for an IRC tutorial atm.

My biggest problem with voat is racism ._.

So, where's our IRC channel?

voat makes a lot of noise because they're... god they're what they are i spent like a minute trying to think up a way to summarize why they're terrible and did not succeed

i didn't know other people knew about raddle aside from like radical leftists who somehow stumble upon it

uh we don't really make nay noise at all we just want to hang out and post but still ban the bad people lol

thank i have not picked anything yet so your not late

I may be late but Beat The Champ might be my fave

We've been around for like two months or so. And I don't know of any list of Postmill communities.

Oh, how long ago?

Also, where's the big list of Postmill communities?

Because we don't really advertise this place lol, we just got started up.

:)

I don't have the info on me rn I'm at work, I'll make a post about it tonight.

Alright. Where's your IRC?

Sweet I caused a mix up with a second board before it even existed.

When I went to make an introduction forum I called it intros at first and I got a "this forum already exists" error.

I wonder how long it takes someone to mix up /f/intros and /f/introductions

Nope, no matrix. The IRC channel and Discord are separate things too, we set up the Discord mostly for voice chat but people use it for text chat as well.

Thank you! Here is my introduction.

So do we have a Matrix chatroom? If not, I suppose I can still access the IRC channel via Matrix. Are the IRC and Discord bridged?

I've been meaning to make a post about our chatrooms, we have IRC and Discord lol. I'll pull all that info together in a bit.

You can post an intro on /f/just_post if you want to, but I just made an /f/introductions if you want a place to do that.

thank
