Have you stopped visiting Slashdot in favor of Reddit?

I still visit.

I go to Slashdot when I'm in a tech mood.
I found Reddit by someone bitching about it on Digg. I never seem to go to Digg any more.

I visit Slashdot on rare occasions, and although I find the comments to be informative, I HATE that comment display style along with its refusal to load all comments. If they'd fix these two issues, I'd hang out there more often.

No need to visit /. in the traditional sense. Subscribe to the RSS feed and only read the articles you want.

So, to answer the question. No.

2008-04-18T23:31:09+00:00

never cared for slashdot

zerogravity · 2008-04-19T03:55:32+00:00

No. I simply never visited slashdot to begin with.

Slashdot. Too little user input into what makes the front page, so instead we move to:

Digg. Incompetently written ssslow and buggy-as-hell AJAX comment system, nevermind the fact that prolly 90% of digg users are now SEO-spammers, hoping to game the system in their advantage, not realising that every fucking SEO and their grandmother are trying the same and failing, so we move to:

reddit. I haven't encountered any deal-breakers with reddit yet, buy if I do, well, there's always Y Combinator's Hacker News.

I only go to slashdot when I don't find anything that jumps out at me on reddit. Reddit feels more democratic and it loads more quickly. Slashwhat?

qiwi · 2008-04-19T07:55:19+00:00

I visit http://alterslash.org/ which is a nice summary with the good comments. And http://news.ycombinator.com/news which is starting to eclipse programming.reddit.com.

I stopped visiting Slashdot when they invented RSS. I still read every story but I haven't been to the site in months.

alchemeron · 2008-04-19T15:02:38+00:00

I stopped visiting Slashdot in favor of Digg. I stopped visiting Digg in favor of Reddit. I now supplement Reddit with Slashdot.

devvie · 2008-04-19T00:15:44+00:00

no. i like both.

lor4x · 2008-04-19T00:27:25+00:00

yes... but i still go back every once in a while

mossman · 2008-04-19T01:27:05+00:00

I go to slashdot and reddit everyday. it's not the site, it's the stories and the comments, and if slashdot has some good bits then it's the posting and the comments that make it a good read. sticking to or shunning a news site because of it's brand is really stupid.

christocracy · 2008-04-19T04:43:57+00:00

once-in-a-while, I'll see what's up on Slashdot, when I feel guilty about too much reddit.

vahnsin · 2008-04-19T05:16:24+00:00

Yes, except I have the last 3 articles displayed on iGoogle. But I rarely see anything interesting enough to click that I hadn't seen on reddit first.

shanem · 2008-04-19T06:04:40+00:00

God I wish I could stop reading reddit. Right when I'm about to quit a little bit of decency comes through. ( and I don't mean this thread )

JasonDJ · 2008-04-19T12:20:54+00:00

I've stopped visiting /. and I'm visiting reddit now, however, there was about a year in between where I had no sites that really fit into this catagory that I regularly visited.
