I hope that they don't fuck it up. Last thing I really want here on Hubski is a tard invasion.

I came here during the fatpeoplehat ban. Not because I disagreed with decision, but there was a list of reddit alternatives posted and I was curious.

Likewise! People were posting graphs of Google searches for "Reddit alternative" spiking, so I figured I'd add to it. Hubski was the one I liked most.

I, for one, am glad you are sticking around.

Do tards really come here whenever Reddit Fucks up? When fatpeoplehate got banned or coontown, people from those type of subreddits didn't decide to come here. And if they did, did they stay long? I remember Grendel. Once people stopped giving him attention, he left.

The real terrible people who fled reddit during that whole mess went to voat. Voat imploded under the pure power of being an open sewer good for nothing but shitposting and fascism. Voat was a worse the_donald than the_donald. Then they skittered off to 4chan and fucked up the video game boards.

Hubski has a great design feature where the trolls get shoved off to the corners fairly quickly. Trolls and shitposters thrive on eyeballs, drama and attention so they don't stick around long.

I think 'tard' has fallen by the wayside. :)

Some classics are timeless.

How about ‘asshats’ or ‘assclowns’?

‘Turd burglars’ is truthful, yet likely too cumbersome. It makes me smile a bit though.
