Turns out the /r/technology fans were lurkers after all. So far /m/technology has 1 comment vs 170 for /m/tech.

I moved to /r/tech on reddit when it became apparent that /r/technology were shills, or astrofurfers, or both… something was weird on /r/technology.

    I mentioned here how it would be good to allow magazines themselves to federate, to reduce community fragmentation.

    Certainly already there’s m/ai, m/artificialintelligence, and m/machinelearning on this instance alone. It feels a bit spammy to post to all three (plus extra work).

      I think its common in online communities. Reddit had the same thing. IMO the competition is good and things will eventually converge on the community with the best content and moderation.
