It’s not a bad thing per se; it’s bad that there is a long tail or nothing but tail despite scores (hundreds?) of posts over years to 2 in particular that ought to be especially sympathetic to us. We shouldn’t be seeing so few from Reddit and Hacker News!
I’m not sure why the long tail is worrisome. How can it be a bad thing for LW to be connected to people with a wide range of interests?

I personally have seen almost nothing about LW from reddit. And I frequent subreddits like cyberpunk, singularity, and transhuman.
Perhaps you could help by reposting there more frequently :)
