  • Not sure the point. There’s already big communities that are fairly active that are more targeted. If I felt like looking at memes, why would I go to a general community instead of a meme community. Or if I wanted news or politics, why wouldn’t I go to one of the large news or politics communities over a general one? Megas within specific communities seem like something that’s only used by a few communities that could be used elsewhere (with the drawback of how /all handles them if you don’t sort by new comments or go directly to the comm).

    /all already includes content from all communities, so something posted to c/general is just as likely to be missed my me as stuff posted to a new niche comm. But that latter gives me to option to sub, so I’m more likely to see any future content posted over the next several years. And I might even get motivated to add a post or two, which a post in a general comm would never achieve.










  • If you cycle regularly though, you’re probably more prepared to deal with the push and pulls from the air of a large vehicle passing (which they can still surely feel, even if they don’t have to deal with maintaining their balance) and better at maintaining your line. Someone who just never cycles would probably have a lot harder time dealing with both of those so the bus would need to pass further away to make it equivalent, but then you wouldn’t really get that effect of having a wall right next to them. Either way is missing part of the experience.
