The best I have seen so far.
By a different point of view, I like the scarcity of people around. Makes it easier to engage in a direct conversation rather than the chaos of reddit.
I would even go as far as to propose a (monthly?) cap for new users, or joining by invitation only. That may keep the quality of posts high while decreasing scam / advertisement / etc.
In my opinion, that does not contrast with the freedom of speech that constiuetes the foundations of Ramble.
I also like that you can edit your username. Just did it. Never seen this feature before.
Yeah wo/man, you've done an amazing job. Not only is it a very well put together site, the fact that you can access this from so many different platforms that I didn't even know existed a week ago is also super cool. By now I think I've interacted with this site from every direction that you offer except i2p... have never had good luck with that one in general.
I agree with the first point. I don't live on Reddit like a lot of people and unless you happen to get somewhere just as a conversation is starting, you have no chance of being heard. That and it doesn't matter what stance you take on what subject, it seems like your inbox will always be flooded by a tonne of armchair experts informing you why you are wrong, usually in a less than civil manner.
As to your second point, do we know the number of users joining? I'm wondering if there's just an initial burst and then regrettably it loses steam?
Totally agree with you.
Of course the situation right now is totally OK, but it may be useful to evaluate measures in case the number of new users skyrockets. Probably Rambler has all the statistics.
Seams I still can't remember how to symlink a user :(
I2P is great. Cause it's not relaying on clearnet instead is like old internet without need to JS :)
My current problem with i2p is that I've never been able to really get it up and running. It seems to need a lot of configuration, which I can deal with, but I'm not sure if it's actually worth the pain of setting it up. Much like these others, there's not a lot of content out there (understandable), and I don't know that I really want to take that effort right now if the pay off isn't worth it.
You should talk to dr|z3d_ on i2p irc he will help you with setting up everything. Channel #saltr
It's still very new, just over a week old now.
Looks like I got here just in time! Well done with spreading the word though, I came here throug a ZeroNet post.
