Ah, I think I see what you're saying! You're saying that while HN can get by with a few moderator 'super users', it goes against the ethos of hubski to have a privileged few. Is this the concern?

That, and I I don't see Hubski so much as a place, but a service that allows you to build a personalized content community. -There are as many 'Hubski's as there are users.

I wonder if there's a way to integrate a notion of subreddits with hubski..

I'm personally more into people as the centers of gravity rather than topics. That's part of the reason why Hubski's tags are so elementary. I might be wrong about this approach, but I don't think it has been explored enough in the aggregation space.

In fact, I don't think most people understand just what it is I am doing here. :) That's probably my fault. But, I do have a plan. Most people see Hubski and think HN or Reddit. Take away the 'all posts' page, and what happens? Your Hubski and my Hubski could be very very different. If Hubski is big enough, they might not overlap at all.
