reddit melbourne looks a bit sad, one post and even that got downvoted
r/Melbourne looks pretty heathy as a sub (engagement wise) with posting frequency, except the DT section.
We are opposite here.
For some reason nobody posts separately here. (Few exceptions of course.)
Tbh their DT might be quieter but has a wider range of posters (and always will I think, since reddit is still going to be dominant for quite a while). Over here I think it's turned into a chatroom mainly for 5-7 regulars lol. Including yours truly.
The daily thread seems a bit like a copy of all the all posts which would pretty much instantly get downvoted in the before times. Much less conversation. I've not re-subbed to it since I was permanently suspended on my old account. I have a look it at now and then and yeah, we killed the old daily thread. I've noticed that most of the people who didn't come across to here have stopped posting in that dt as well. No surprise, it's a bit shit.
