I'm really liking what I see from my browsing of hubski and I hope it can continue to live up to its mission. However, I'm a little worried the ways of reddit will slowly erode hubski's foundation. Here's to keeping this community as it was designed to be. Let's all do our best to do our parts.

You're your own mod though so if you don't like what someone is posting then you can block their comments/post. Also most redditors seem to be excited about voat for some reason.

My concern has more to do with the general zeitgeist of reddit spilling over to this community, but yea being your own mod is a cool feature for sure. Still trying to find my way around...

I've been here for only ~24 hours and I'm pretty sure I know my way around a lot of the site. Explore, click the tabs at the top and the bottom and see where they lead you to. Test out following and filtering tags as well as other people. I just experimented and learned a lot about the site.

Voat is giving them the same thing Reddit gave them. Hubski on the other hand, gives you something similar, yet different. I like to use both, with Voat feeling more like methadone as opposed to Hubski, which feels like a new and exciting drug.

Yes, that's what I am keeping in mind too. I imagine it'll be a looooong time before Hubski is accepted as its own thing, as opposed to a "Reddit Alternative." It does have some key differences though, and only time and increased traffic will tell if they work!
