Movim VS MetaFilter

When https://siskin.im/ is seriously touted as the best iOS client for XMPP, you already lost 50% of the market share in the US. And if you don't have any usable app for 50% of your users in one of the most important markets, you can not really claim "interoperability", can you?

The /r/science subreddit is decent, metafilter.com is sometimes a noteworthy aggregator. I have seen a lot of inconvenient-news sorts of things show up on The Guardian, although I've heard them increasingly criticized along some axes.
