there are several people asking for invites. pm me or reply here and I'll invite you (Until my ten invites run out). In roughly 7h because I'm going to sleep now. In a recent census we realized we have very few non-tech people and women, so please help us even the scales by reaching out if you see this ;)

What struck me immediately was how fast this site loaded. No font popping, no cookie waivers, no newsletter nagging, no huge images, no JavaScript fade-in, no scrolljacking, no signup wall. Funny how practical it is to make a functional forum and news aggregator that Just Works. I'll definitely be keeping an eye on this and would love to get an invite!
So is this kind of like HN but for everything? I’m digging it.
And I've got a few invites. Reply and ping via email (see my HN user page) if interested.
This is great: fast, interesting content, comments, voting, but... I can't do anything until I get an invite. Tedious. This invite only model sucks an 18-metre radius dog anus. We've seen it far too many times before. It's really boring and overdone and needs to die. Seriously, just let us in. And I know what you're thinking, "Wow, this comment is super-obnoxious and we don't want this kind of person in here", but ch…
check my karma: it's pretty good. You've just crossed a line.
(I'm sure that the response would be "the invite-only model merits being a jerk in response", but given the topic is community it feels like believing something that self-serving/self-perpetuating of malbehavior ought to be disqualifying.)

If you want an invite, you can just email me as explained in the announcement post: https://blog.tildes.net/announcing-tildes
The main reason I actually use Reddit is because there's a community for almost anything. I had a quick browse through the issues/roadmap but; do you have a plan to allow user-created groups or subgroups? For example, ~food is too general for bread-making and so reddit has communities like https://old.reddit.com/r/breadit, which is a great place to ask for baking advice specific to baking bread.

Signed up and it looks great! Looking forward to seeing it grow. The main reason I actually use Reddit is because there's a community for almost anything.

Even reddit itself didn't support subreddit creation for over 3 years. It takes a long time to have a userbase large enough for it to work.
In the meantime, Tildes has a pretty flexible tagging system to help categorize topics, and tags can transition into formal groups quite nicely.
