Instances or networks that focus on forums and conversations instead of link aggregation?
Instances or networks that focus on forums and conversations instead of link aggregation?
It seems like any platform that features link aggregation is soon overrun by bots and self-promoters trying to drive traffic, and pages and pages of link posts versus pages and pages of people talking.
Are there any lemmy instances or other defederated networks that focus on Q&A, niche communities, and people conversing, instead?

I heard that this is the new project from exploding-heads, is it correct?
No.
HC is its own thing, and its purpose is for fun. Whatever fun means to you as long as it's not illegal.
The primary reason HC was created is for the purpose of having fun.
For some, posting political shit is 'fun', so you will see some political posts.
We are pretty strongly adamant about not having a political bias in our instances.
So we don't care if you post left or right shit. Upvotes and down votes are there for a reason and our community can decide what they like and don't like with those functions.
We do not take posts down or ban users based on our own personal ideologies.
There will be no favoring of either political side. Right and left are allowed.
I think this is why people have that assumption.
It is. It has the same people on it from exploding-heads and is currently linked to nostr.
Do we have users from exploding heads? Yes, we do. we also have users from NOSTR who were invited and a few from reddit.
I'm not sure why you are making assumptions about our instances when you're not even an admin there or involved in any way, shape, or from.
HC is not exploding-heads number 2, or meant to be a eh replacement. HC was created for the purpose of having fun, hanging out, fucking around and posting content you make, without having to deal with lemmy drama.
We are not, eh we do not plan to be, or to federate,ever So, I am sorry if this disappoints you.
We welcome both left and right, leaning people. Right now, we just so happen to have more right and center ppl.
Leftists and centrists are welcomed to join. Our core value is not giving a shit which side you're on. Although we allow political stuff from both sides, HC was not, and is not a political movement.
I'm sure you not interested along with many others and that's fine.
I will address anyone making this assumption bc its incorrect.
