Ice If you could, how would you personally improve the UX of this site?
🤙 Adam 99 Maybe a way to like things?
Ice I feel that, but I think one of the core ideas of this site was the lack of popularity scores (likes, followers, shares etc)
🤙 Adam 99 Yeah I think that's awesome - maybe a different kind of feature that I can use to quickly let the poster know I appreciated their post
☕ Christopher I think you are still kind of missing the point. The absence of popularity counters aren't for the sole reason of obfuscating if a person or their post is well received or popular. There's also a culture that this site is trying to attract that is against the detrimental idea of deriving self-esteem and shots of serotonin that's associated with social praise. Our main source of validation should not be coming from strangers on the internet.
👉 Léo I completely agree with what you're saying, but I still think there should be space for a "reaction" feature. I am thinking something like github, but do not make the counters public
