I mean, a LITTLE BIT echo-chambery.
But at least here when people disagree with you, you get reasoned pushback -- not instablock or ad hominems
There's a prevailing worldview, but you don't have to toe the line for people to interact with you or zap your work.
I feel like there's a fair amount of curiosity, which is pretty much the opposite of an echo chamber.
Kiiiind of agree, yeah.
But we dont have even remotely representative crowd here
Name the place you do have a representative crowd. I mean one that has heterodox views also represented.
I write a post on the war in Ukraine and I get the standard main stream line as well as my own view and other views. I write about anarchism and I get all kinds of responses. I write about bitcoin and I get push back because I am not a big enough maxi.
That's my experience. On X it would be very different. Same goes for Bluecry or Facebag.
True, very happy about all of that.
And nowhere I know of but this doesn't seem to cut it

Thank God!
I don't want average stackers. I want thoughtful and curious stackers.
Yep
Yeah, I don't find it to be an echo chamber either. There is still quite a bit of diversity of opinion.
Diversity in opinion is a boon. SN has healthy diversity unlike other places where you'll see people targeting each other with BS and often in a vulgar way.
The difference between SN and them I found is that they are not aligned with an ultimate aim. On contrary to them, we here on SN are all Bitcoiners with a final aim to fix "The Broken Money".
Yeah, it helps that we're all rowing in the same direction on at least one thing.
we here on SN are all Bitcoiners
That's not true. I can tell you I've interacted with people that are NOT bitcoiners.
Yupp! Beg your pardon. To amend it let's put in —Most of us here on SN are Bitcoiners.
except you, the biggest shitcoiner
we here on SN are all Bitcoiners
EXCEPT YOU, THE BIGGEST LIAR AND SHITCOINER pretending to be a bitcoiner.
I don't find Stacker News to be nearly as echo chamber-y as other social media, including the popular nostr clients.
Maybe we can think of Stacker News as more of a refuge for the "lost soul that looks at the world and thinks... yeah what they say on TV sounds like BS".
