This is great and shows the whole picture better. I’ve seen people concerned about the drop off in daily users, but a look at the posts and comments per day seems encouraging!

I’m of the mindset, like others, that this place doesn’t need to be Reddit-big to be good, and in fact would be better off not that big. However I would definitely like to see smaller communities grow and see more posts and post variety overall, which more numbers will obviously help.

None of this applies to the average user though.

The vast majority of devices sold come with Windows or MacOS, so you’re suggesting that the average Joe should wipe their drive, pick a distro, and self-install and maintain a new operating system.

You and I know that it’s not as difficult as it sounds, but that’s asking a lot from people who can’t even bother to reboot their system when there’s been an update pending for 10 days.

Really good read, idk what the downvotes are about.

Copy that, thank you!

I spun up Ubuntu on a Linode so it should be up all the time. I check the Linode dash fairly often and haven’t seen any issues with it.

I read something the other day that they’re working on a new sorting algorithm that would limit it to the top few posts from each community within a given time frame. Specifically to address this issue.

No idea on timeframe or further details, or if I even summarized it correctly lol.
