I actually found that I really like the "hot" scrolling so much better. On Reddit, everything I came across had ~hundreds of comments and everything was multiple hours old. I didn't feel like I could contribute at all. But here... it feels a lot smaller, and most of the "hot" posts are not rubbish, so I feel like I can actually contribute!

Well for me, the real content of Reddit was finding an interesting thing and then reading a few dozen comments from people really in the know.

Here it's going to be a dozen top-level comments and maybe one of them will have a thread longer than three messages.
