HN commenters are very busy deliberating over how weird it is that all of the alternative social networks are just Twitter clones, and nobody is doing more experimental UX stuff
In the same thread where people are complaining about how fedi stuff and federation and all that is just so *difficult*
Gee I wonder why you're only finding Twitter clones
@joepie91 @riley
One has to wonder what “experiments” they would find an improvement and not just lambast.
Twitter basically perfected the UX for this kind of social media, so its not that surprising that the same UX gets used in similar sites. It’s like complaining that all MMOs just replicate World of Warcraft and Guild Wars… well, yeah, no shit

@joepie91 it's funny cause HackerNews looks exactly like old Reddit
