#65I really like Tildes https://tildes.net/ which is less focused, more about everything (god I wish I could frontpage an article about sports on HN) but has a much higher ratio of discussions to links (e.g. Ask HN is a joke) I have invites.
I'd love an invite if you still have any.
Re: Ask HN: Sites like HN on other topics?
#66Honestly, this is the wrong question, but I understand the intent. What you really should be asking is "Where is the online community for your hobby/interest?" The thing with HN, is it works for the startup/hacker/tech community, and that community has evolved here over time. If you want a link/topic sharing site for other interests, the answer is almost always going to be a subreddit. But if what you really want is…
Honestly part of the reason I use HN is the UI, and to me it feels less "community" than something like a forum or even reddit.
When I asked the question I was literally imagining hn but say, about art. It's the mix of "keeping up" with news and people sharing interesting tidbits. I find that doesn't happen often in subreddits I follow either, even if they're good communities.

Do you mind sending me one? I understand if not since I've been lurking more than I've been commenting, but I really value online forums like HN which don't seem to suffer (as much) from the issues that plague, for example, Reddit, and I'd appreciate it :D
Re: Ask HN: Sites like HN on other topics?
#68There are some excellent topic-specific subreddits IMO. Like: - /r/ProgrammingLanguages - /r/Compilers - /r/EmuDev - /r/DatabaseDevelopment (disclosure, I run this one)
How do you generally find subreddits? I used love forums instead of subreddits. Subreddits seem to have very shallow conversations and does not have decent explanations.

Would you be open to sharing an invite?
