Did I miss something or is Hubski the only site they didn't talk shit about?

I'll be honest, it's the only section I read. I thought he seemed to really get what we are trying to accomplish.

The other alternatives have awful names ('Empeople', really?), broken mechanics or are ripoffs of Reddit with all the problems that that brings. You didn't miss much.

How are you supposed to pronounce empeople? Am I missing something?

user-inactivated  ·  3452 days ago  ·  link  ·  

Presumably as you would 'empower'.

To me, they didn't bash on Snapzu. They just seemed pretty confused/cautious about the invite only thing.

Snapzu is invite only? Has it always been that way? I get weekly emails from a Snapzu account I haven't checked in two years and don't remember creating.

Beats me how long it's been like that, that's just from what I've heard. The invites are suppose to be real easy to get though.

I think that means we're not trying too hard

But also I feel misunderstood. The sentence about hubski might standing a chance if it gets more popular?
