That is unfortunate. I guess there are some issues with reddit as a p2p thing unless some new ideas are implemented to prevent the issue of spamming as Tom said. I've had some ideas about distributed moderation, but have young kids, and a full time job, so not much time to do any useful work on that -- right now. This is really nice, and hope this project will grow.

> I even tried to implement a Plebbit update thread here and encourage the devs to use it, but no they stick to Telegram. I don’t get it, why build a product and not use it… We were posting on blog.plebbit.eth but it got spammed by a user generating hundreds of accounts. This is the issue, it's why I'm not posting seriously/updating on development: plebbit is not usable yet for serious subs, it can only be used for random shitposting and spamming, until we implement user authentication.   We will implement user authentication soon, that is a custom challenge that each sub owner will be free to choose or not (obv it won't be mandatory, it's a challenge). We will turn it on for our dev blog, for example, because we need 1 user = 1 account in it, to get real discussions under each blog post, and to be able to ban users from our sub. Right now, you can't ban users (anyone can create unlimited accounts, which don't hold any value).   The next plebbit-js update will introduce multiple challenges in subs, which are needed for our blog, and also reduce loading time of subs, which we expect will drop from about 30s to 3s (on first load, then takes less than 1s when cached). But that won't be enough. Afterwards, we have to focus on adding this user auth challenge. Only then I'd consider resuming to post seriously, and start marketing, and start building a mobile app for app stores. If we already let the userbase grow, while we can't even authenticate users, every sub will just get spammed, so all subs will be forced to be like 4chan's /b/.
