Well put!
I do notice a lot of sh$tposts in the "recent" section. I like how stackers get in there and curate so that the top posts are mostly interesting. I also do it, but only after exhausting the top posts.
Yea. A lot of that is just "new people" (maybe not all 'real' people). The mechanism here for dividing the 'outer court' from the 'inner court' is clever—we don't need a fence to have a fence.
