I actually found that I really like the "hot" scrolling so much better. On Reddit, everything I came across had ~hundreds of comments and everything was multiple hours old. I didn't feel like I could contribute at all. But here... it feels a lot smaller, and most of the "hot" posts are not rubbish, so I feel like I can actually contribute!

I used to think the same thing: first three results or so are always ads, so just ignore. And then recently they've changed to be 90% ads even after the initial few. It's hard to find something that someone hasn't paid to display :(

"can't [yet] be blocked" This is the claim of every new advertiser platform. Looking forward to it being blocked (and not because I'm on X, just because I'm excited to see them burn).
