The Open Thread is for all posts that don’t necessitate their own thread. The media thread is for recommendations on entertainment. I don’t see why comments should be necessary to bring a paper to LWs attention, especially in the Open Thread, and others clearly disagree with your opinion on this matter.
There is a combination of multiple factors that I have an issue with.
anonymous user
multiple posts
no commentary or discussion started
link outbound
repeated process each week
Alone I have no problem with any of these things (or a few of them); together they add up to; “that which by slow decay” destroys the nature of Lesswrong as we had it before.
There are multiple reasonable solutions to this problem; which include:
me leaving Lesswrong for greener pastures.
changing any of the 5 things:
making an account
posting less each week
starting a discussion
not linking outbound (but also not starting content that links outbound)
not doing it every week
But I would like the 5 changes to be tackled first before I leave.
