seems like it's 97% memes or news articles. i love a good shitpost but this site would be even better with in depth nuanced discussion -- especially with a higher quality userbase than reddit

I prefer the opposite because then it's much more likely to get a response. Something that already has a few hundred or few thousand comments is when I just shitpost snark because it's not even likely to be seen by anyone other than possibly the OP through getting notifications of replies.
