I’m of the belief that more people more opinions wether you agree or not with them is always better

Right on brother.

As to the second part, I guess i see what you're saying. Reddit had its own hidey-holes and echo chambers where you could hear different opinions, not so different from here.

Traversing between instances is familiar, not too different than leaving your sub and scrolling /all.
