I just made my account here a minute ago, after learning about this site from a recent reddit thread about what would cause reddit's downfall, as Digg's restructuring update was its spark that made everyone jump ship to reddit. If this is going to be Digg's reddit, so to speak, I think the concept of following is going to be the catalyst. I say this hesitantly, because the thought of this fragile yet awesome community being collapsed by the demonspawn of /r/AdviceAnimals is terrifying.
First of all, welcome! Secondly, in theory if people that post content your not interested in join Hubski, it should have little impact on your experience. -If you don't follow them, you will not see their posts. If they post to tags that you follow, then you can "ignore" them and not see their posts. If you find that they comment on posts that you comment on, you can mute them and you will not see their comments. We have built in many controls for you to be able to tailor your experience here. You can follow/ignore tags/users and domains. CameOutOfTheTrees, glad to have you here, if either of you have any questions feel free to shout-out or pm me. Enjoy the site! See you around. edit: I should mention that we are always open to suggestions as to how we can protect the integrity of your experience here. Our goal is to be a trusted place to find, create, share and discuss the most interesting content on the web. -Any ideas to help support this goal is most welcome!
Thank you :) I have great hopes for hubski through its evolution, and I'm very glad to see that you've managed to create a hub, npi, for everyone to connect and communicate with each other, but keep it personal at the same time. Choosing the content exposed to you is a great feature that most other sites like this lack. Of course, having an option to see them ALL is equally important.

I agree, that's why we implemented the "global posts" links at the top right of the screen. There you can find all of the posts on Hubski. Again, any and all feedback is most welcome! Thanks nowaypablo. btw, I like your username, my grandfathers name is Pablo and I grew up hearing my grandmother say "no way Pablo" often :)
Ooh cool didn't know that, awesome. And that's funny I don't even know a Pablo irl, it's a play on words with the phrase no way jose. I didn't put too much thought into my username. Oh well :D What's the backstory to this new green?
I agree, I'm also a new guy and I think that this might be like you said "reddit's reddit". I was at reddit for a year and a half and after a while it just got stale.
