My biggest frustration with most link aggregator communities, or even most things is that they inevitably end up serving the lowest common denominator of knowledge. I don’t think I need to spell out the mechanisms for it.

Hackernews has been pretty stellar in this regard as the lowest common denominator is pretty high. Some technical links send me on a backtracking journey until I get to a topic I actually know which eventually allows me to understand the original link.

I’m not sure if this is a problem which could be solved somehow. It’s debatable if it’s even a problem. The reality is that anything “advanced” is also niche by definition.

Hmm interesting, yeah that's actually true. I think you can solve that if only create a close chain which only editors can share links, right?

Do you want to talk us about that? I would like to schedule a call with if you have 10-15 min?

There are a lot learning communities in reddit and one of major problems is the abundance of link material.

* If you are able to create a space per sub-reddit. * A bot to upvote/downvote/add videos can make it a thing?

Can you explain it more, I am not so familiar with reddit.

Our initial, problem was finding great resources where you're trying to learn some topic you're not familiar with. It wastes a lot of time to find quality content with search. So, we created this

Is it possible to represent a topic in multiple dimensions or various levels on depth (ELI5, simple, medium, expert etc).

Thanks for your question. Not for now, but we're thinking to implement that. In our first version you could but it didn't work out and we're trying to find how can we implement that
