SaidIt.net VS SoylentNews

Perhaps. I am looking at https://saidit.net/, Quora, and other platforms as well. Source: 10 months ago

What's the criteria you'd need to be met for "something comparable"? Because I'd say running our own https://saidit.net/ site would be pretty identical. Source: 11 months ago

I love IRC but it serves a slightly different purpose. It isn't threaded and it sacrifices permanency for instantaneousness. In my opinion, a forums and chat rooms compliment each other. Saidit is one good Reddit alternative that implements IRC. It's based on Reddit's code but with some modifications. Every page has an embedded IRC box specific to that subcommunity.

For Reddit alternatives, it looks like https://saidit.net/ (https://github.com/libertysoft3/saidit) and https://phuks.co/ (https://github.com/Phuks-co/throat) could be viable alternatives. They're open source, have the UX features we desire (threaded, voting, sorting, collapsing). Source: 11 months ago

Someone already did it - it's called saidit and it works well but very few people have gone there so far. Source: 11 months ago

SoylentNews. They split off from Slashdot years ago and basically took Slash ) and made it functional. Source: about 2 years ago

Slashdot got sold to Dice a decade ago and went downhill from there. After their absolutely horrible redesign, which I guess they shelved because the site looks as I remember it, the community sort of split into two with plenty people moving over to https://soylentnews.org/ Here's the first SoylentNews submission from 2014: https://soylentnews.org/submit.pl?op=viewsub&subid=1 Disclaimer: I'm just (barely)... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

Even https://soylentnews.org/ which is a slashdot clone doesn't have that great of discussions. Source: over 2 years ago
