I have zero users muted. I am vocally against it, and I do not believe it is a good thing to use a feature you do not believe should exist. Hypocritical.

As for who am I? I would prefer not to say. Suffice to say I have accounts on Reddit (although I've basically given up with Reddit), Slashdot (yes, still), Hacker News, the XKCD forums, the Bay12 forums, KSP forums... And all are different usernames. Hence, "Yet Another Account".

I like reddit. I don't much like proggit as it tends to be snot-nosed kids who think reading a blog post here or there gives them some expertise, but if you can deal with the stupidity, you can still get some valuable information/insight/discussions out of proggit.

To me reddit is amazing for the sheer breadth of content you can experience. I can laugh at a stupid cat gif, involve myself in a deep discussion about type theory and why monads in haskell are amazing/suck/are-kinda-ok/what have you.

I'm also on HN, never could really get into slashdot (not sure why, something about the way the site looks and works turned me off of it).
