Eh, one thing I’ve noticed about SSC is a number of deeply bad comments, which I don’t think I’ve seen on LW. Yes, there are also good comments, but I can imagine someone five years ago looking at the state of SSC commenting now and saying “and this is why we need to ban politics” instead of seeing it as a positive change.
Gonna chip in a +1 regarding SSC’s comment system. There are good comments, but this seems in spite of the comment mechanism, not because.
