We're early adopters. Early adopters have a higher tolerance for (and ability to deal with) things like bugs, confusing UI, uncertainty, and probably continual change for the short term.
But hey, someone's gotta do it. The end result of this will be an established community and a more polished product. Over time, more and more people will show up as this place gets better and better, and Reddit continues to worsen. (Everyone knows that old.reddit is going away, it's just a matter of when.)
Not to mention, a lack of content. While it's populating nicely it's still not like Reddit, especially for niche subjects. You definitely have to endure a lot of shouting in the wind situations while this builds up.
Yep. The battletech comunity on reddit is like 45k subscribers and stays active. Kbin's /m/battletech has 56 subscribers. There are 5 threads. It's gonna be quite a while before niche communities actually have any momentum.
Well damn, thanks for talking about it, another community to sub to!
Time to find a Shadowrun one as well.
Hah, yea, you'd think so too right? If I still can't find one I'll go create it. Again, like with BT, I'm not sure what I can contribute, haven't played a game since 4th Ed Anniversary. I do have a copy of Anarchy that I got cheap since I was curious, but I haven't read it yet.
