Congrats on being banned from reddit

Plus the creepy little Reddit alien is annoying.

Why? I think it's cute.

I know a lot of people find him / it cute, but I just find it weird that everyone's (Reddit) avatar, more or less, is that alien. Like some kind of conformity thing. It's an arguably minor detail, but the prevalence of the little guy kind of bugged me.

It's not a conformity thing. That's just the default avatar, and reddit also recently introduced an avatar maker.

I like this site better, anyway. More text. Fewer images. Simpler. Like Hacker News.

Less distractions. You can post whatever your into, and people will really respond. You can disagree, we have all different types of people. I find this to be just as supportive or more supportive than Reddit.

If you start reading user names, you’ll get to know people.

Thanks, man. I'm finding that it's easier for people to agree to disagree over here; people can call one another names everyone just deals with it, like back in the old days. It's cool. And even after getting cussed out, people are still pretty chill and friendly, and shake hands. It's very civil!
