I'd like to remind everyone there is a "block user" and a "block sub" button under every post and every comment. Please use them! You can unblock users by clicking the "blocked" tab on the preferences page, or unblock subs by going to that sub directly and hitting "unblock sub" under any post there.

No idea about the time line. I used it thoughout the 1990s and early 2000s. It is based on the email protocol. It was the heyday of free speech on the internet, practically zero moderation, everybody filtered for himself.

    Yeah I've though about doing a version where 'hot' is sorted by latest comment post, old forum style
