As an autistic person, I'm much more comfortable with the classic forum layout. I know instantly where a certain discussion would be appropriate. Whereas on reddit, I often feel at bit lost to be frank even with flair on posts. I've created a youth rights forum on proboards.com It's a free hosting service for forums. My forum is called Youth Rights Now! Source: 6 months ago

I mean, sites like that have existed since back then. Hell Proboards is still active: https://proboards.com/. Source: 12 months ago

Otherwise, your best bet is to use a 3rd party service (like proboards.com - I hope its ok I posted that link, im not affiliated with it) and then just link to it from your website. that would the less hassle way. Source: about 2 years ago

I think they'd rather have one community rather than multiple communities oriented around different subjects. (See Reddit) I have been thinking about making a classification model for "things that might be posted to Hacker News" and was thinking about training it on https://tildes.net/. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

Https://tildes.net/ It was mentioned in recent HN thread on other websites that people who read HN like. But I do mean my question more broadly, not just about this particular website. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

I don’t think comments make a story more visible on HN, it’s not like https://tildes.net/ My belief actually is that visibility of posts is suppressed if they get, say, 20 comments and already have 50 votes. So if you want to be systematic about posting comments with some “tough love” go right ahead. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

People on Tildes thought the author of that article was a lunatic https://tildes.net/~food/1b92/im_a_microbiologist_and_here_is_what_and_where_i_never_eat. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

I really like Tildes https://tildes.net/ which is less focused, more about everything (god I wish I could frontpage an article about sports on HN) but has a much higher ratio of discussions to links (e.g. Ask HN is a joke) I have invites. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago
