Well, insomniasexx pretty much hit it on the head. Reddit offers instant thrills and it's easy to get distracted. Of course, users can tailor their experience too, but defaults make a huge impact on new users as far as tone and mentality. Hubski, from the get-go presents itself as the kind of place that one needs to interact with in a much more proactive way. Also, reddit exists as a foil to hubski, at least for me. I can get my cheap thrills and then head over here to learn something and to actually interact with users who are focused on the same kind of thing.

I see it as rather like accessing a tabloid newspaper for a fast dump of the day's news, then heading over to the Sundays for a more in-depth understanding of the issues.
