I agree with you, for saidit to grow into a proper reddit alternative we need to have more than wacky politics (which is fine and should be allowed) and endless talk about how shit reddit has become.

In order to meliorate this problem we can't just complain to others about how their not doing it we have to be proactive. How about making new subs and posting in them? I have personally made a number of subs and am waiting for users to populate them, occasionally I post to an empty crowd but I can only hope that one day it will be populated.

I made:

/s/Chess
/s/Chaos
/s/howardstern
/s/IRC
/s/aaronswartz
/s/nootropics

All of which are neither politics/conspiracy or reddit critique.

Lets make it how we want it to be.

RIP to Mr. Swartz. What a great soul he was.

I'll also check out s/Chess. I mostly like solving chess puzzles. I don't think I'll ever have the motivation to get into opening theory enough to be much good.
