I honestly do not mind it one but. I quite like the interface. It’s minimal but there are some bugs to it which is to be expected. I really do like the overall design of it though. There isn’t too much going on. It’s like old Reddit which I am a big fan of
It's sort of the early days. I think this is an issue that will work itself out over time as people gravitate to the largest, most active communities for a topic and the smaller ones fade away. But with so many people arriving, trying to figure things out, and setting up their own communities for topics they like things are certainly kind of diffuse at the moment.

Perhaps if one doesn’t want people to think one’s criticisms are in bad faith, one should provide supporting evidence for accusations.
I’m not even a CBC stan. I’m a socialist and CBC is way, way too friendly to landlords for my liking. But this article is 100% garbage.
