@Gargron in scrolling through the replies here, it looks like it’s a culture battle btw people who have enjoyed the silo’d & quieter aspect here (along with being really techy) vs the new people who are missing a wider conversation & who have been part of big cultural movements & need/want to continue that here. Almost like introverts vs extroverts. I would say, then, that the personal and societal arguments on both sides are valid. Offering options for both is the solution, along with the UX.
