Thanks that makes sense. I get why some people are against it, but ranking on your engagement can be super useful imo. Like if I comment on a couple niche communities a lot, I don’t want those to be drowned out by the much larger communities.

I have to disagree with this paragraph. That Tailwind enforces a design system is its biggest strength. Having a small selection of colors, font sizes, and padding to choose from is what makes a website feel much more cohesive than one where developers pick arbitrary values every time they style an element.

But you don't need Tailwind for that; design systems are easy to implement these days using CSS custom properties.

That was true at one point, but reddit has had personalized rankings for a while now. See: https://www.reddit.com/r/changelog/comments/7hkvjn/what_we_think_about_when_we_think_about_ranking

But your point stands; reddit's earlier ranking methodology was obviously pretty good since it made the site so popular.

A “US-American” if you need to be very clear. But most people just say “American”.

Yeah that’s a bluff. Google searches surely make up a huge portion of their traffic.

Damn that’s sad. War is hell.

The Julia and Mandelbrot sets always get me. That such a complex structure could arise from such simple rules. Here's a brilliant explanation I found years back: https://www.karlsims.com/julia.html

Those countries are capitalist. Research the Nordic Model.

It is shit, Austin

Hamas is the ruling, elected authority of Gaza. And even before them, other Palestinian officials have rejected multiple peace deals. That doesn’t mean all Palestinians are culpable, the same way not all Israelis are responsible for Netanyahu’s actions.

Why not?

Its is a ‘both sides’ issue when the Palestinian side has rejected every peace deal, commits terrorist attacks, and calls for the genocide of Jews. Nobody looks good in this conflict.

Why is everyone so black and white on this issue? Israel has a right to exist. Palestine has a right to exist. It shouldn’t be hard to understand.
