I had almost forgotten about that subreddit. Sadly it has been in a zombie state for years now. Despite having millions of members you can hardly find even 100+ comments on any post in the front page.

Last time I checked only political posts (like related to offshore programmers) got any kind of attention. Most technical posts barely gets 10 comments. Some of the smaller subreddits (like /r/ProgrammingLanguages) are much better.

1 comments

It's badly moderated (not enough mod resources or something). There is essentially only one mod. Bad comments have a 99.9% chance of not being moderated out at all, and that killed my interest in participation
