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 / 7 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.

SSB's development is also decentralized, so this doesn't mean that everything moves forward in unison, so depending on who you ask, Scuttlebutt.nz is not the official frontpage. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

Manyverse (version 0.2210.3-beta-fdroid): A social network off the grid. Source: over 1 year ago

This looks pretty interesting. Do you know how it is different from similar systems that use the SSB protocol, like Manyverse for example? Source: over 1 year ago

I really look forward to interfaces that let me use my own index of data from my network. Manyverse[1] and Iris[2] are good examples of apps that will enable this more in the future. I just want to search “harry potter” and see everything my friends have written about it. If I follow some institutions or encyclopedias, I should also see what they write about it.
