Interesting – on old LW I basically never read the recent discussion because it was small and off to the side and didn’t display much of the comments.
I do think not having the leaderboard thing decreases engagement, and have mixed feelings about that, since the way it increased engagement was the sort of facebook-like-thing that’s kinda hijacking your monkey brain in skinner-boxy-ways.
Same. The recent discussion section feels a lot more prominent to me than on old LW. I also practically never used the recent discussion section on the old site.
it’s literally the only thing I use. I basically never click on the post list because they’re all collapsed and on a different page. give me a feeeeeeed
