提问 HN：你们如何找到管理良好的社区？
1 分•作者: pllbnk•6 个月前
我很多年前就开始上网，感觉互联网浩瀚无垠，充满了可以探索的新奇想法。现在，感觉大约90%（推测数字）的在线讨论都集中在少数几个平台上，比如Facebook、前身为Twitter的X、TikTok、Reddit和Discord。大多数平台都变成了“垃圾场”。Reddit还算差强人意，但越来越被机器人流量淹没。Discord社区缺乏真正的发现机制，只关注当下，迫使用户追随热门话题。
机器人问题非常严重，因为它们会影响舆论，而且通常非常善于躲避非专业用户的检测。
Hacker News（HN）仍然是为数不多的几个地方之一，尽管规模不小，但其版主一直保持着高质量的标准。我可以在这里尊重不同的观点，因为我相信这是真人经过认真思考后写出来的。
几年前，我预测随着机器人涌入开放平台，人们会退守到规模更小、更封闭的社区，这些社区的规模取决于其有效管理的能力。虽然当时这仅仅是我的直觉，但今天我亲眼看到它似乎正在发生。但这带来了一个发现问题：你如何找到这些地方？而且，健康的社区需要新鲜的成员和观点，但增长却让管理变得更加困难，这其中存在着一种矛盾。
你如何找到具有HN级别讨论质量的社区？我不是在问关于小众专业社区的问题，而是关于对各种话题进行平衡讨论的社区，不仅仅是技术。此外，请分享你对我的“围墙花园”社区预测的看法，你认为我的预测正确吗？

I started using internet many years ago and it felt vast, with unlimited amount of novel ideas to discover. Now it feels like 90% (speculative number) of online discourse happens on relatively few platforms like Facebook, a site formerly known as Twitter, TikTok, Reddit, and Discord. Most platforms have become slop stores. Reddit is still half-decent but increasingly overrun by bot traffic. Discord communities have no real discovery mechanism and it is concentrated only on present and forces users to follow what's the hot topic right now.<p>The bot problem is huge because they shape opinions and often are very good at staying undetected by non-expert users.<p>HN remains one of the few places where, despite its size, moderation has kept the high bar of quality. I can respect a contrary opinion here because I trust an actual person wrote it after genuine thought.<p>A few years ago I predicted that as bots flood open platforms, people would retreat into smaller, closed communities sized by their capacity to moderate effectively. Although back then it was based on nothing else but a gut feeling, today I already see for myself that it seems to be happening. But this creates a discovery problem: how do you find these places? And there is a tension that healthy communities need fresh members and perspectives but growth makes moderation harder.<p>How do you find communities with HN-level discourse quality? I am not asking about niche specialist communities but this balanced discussion on a wide variety of topics, not only tech. Also please share your thoughts regarding my prediction about "walled-garden" communities and do you think my prediction is correct?
