On /r/fantasy and /r/books I've gotten the chance to interact with some of my favorite authors...not just on special occasions but because they're core members of the community. On /r/woodworking people were endlessly helpful when I tried to pick up woodworking as a hobby. When school starts redditors help out and outfit classrooms with supplies. Reddit is what got me into charitable giving. There are 1000's of people that depend on the MS/Diabetes/Aids/F***Cancer/etc subreddits for their support systems. For every crappy subreddit there's one or more to balance the scales.
Saying Reddit is filled with nothing but scum and villainy and that /r/golang was the only one similar to human is incredibly insulting to 100's of thousands of us, particularly because /r/golang isn't a very good community. A community comes from and grows from its leadership and from its core...seems like /r/golang has cultivated exactly the community it deserves. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
