Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

MODERATORS
The way I understood websites like these is they are meant to be link aggregators which would imply that the entire page would be full of links on that topic and the discussion would be about those articles or links in general.
Yes, link aggregation is one of the main feature of reddit. And I guess it's a main feature here as well. But another feature on both sites is also the text-post that can be used to promote discussion among users. But they are so few and far between they drown in all the post with links to new-site of less than good quality.
Of course there are webforums, but the one that are still active are usually single topic webforums. Like for example windows 10 forums, or a rc-helicopter/remote-drone forum. This place is a much better place to discuss a wide range of topics inside the correct community, anything from gardening, to politics, to power electronics. That's why I would enjoy a common place in the fediverse to meet people :)
