I think you nailed it, as did possessedcow. In the same boat re: askreddit, at it's best it's my favorite format on reddit and at it's worst it's exactly as you describe. Too often it's the latter.

As princecold points out, due to the nature of hubski it'll likely be a lot more direct, even if the topic is not (e.g. superpowers). You ask the question, you get replies, discussion begins. I like it.

I will say, however, that recent changes over there that forbid "Here's a question about the topic I already want to talk about. I'll start" threads have made it somewhat better.
