This is an infrequent sub for Silicon Valley dumbassery, Sam Altman or Paul Graham or HN reactionaries or the rest of the spawn of the Californian Ideology who aren’t actually the LessWrongers.
Originally an offshoot from SneerClub, created due to off-topic orange-sitery.
the SneerClub diaspora[1] grows! something about federation seems to be driving engagement in a much more positive direction than Reddit ever did

Probably a lot of equalizing being done by drivers-by browsing “all”. Techtakes and sneerclub could still shake out back to the old ratios if/when things calm down and “all” gets captured by less niche subs. Or maybe not.
I wasn’t on the subreddit, did it get upvote counts that high?
not even slightly, techtakes was a tiny backwater sub that basically never took off.
I miss n-gate. I hope whoever they were is doing OK…
they’re not reading HN, which is an excellent start on doing OK
I think they are, they just got tired of covering the same old crap.
I really enjoy their snarky writing style. I’d love to read their thoughts and commentary on other, less orange stuff.
i like contraversial places like this: a second opinion about things always comes in handy
