Oh, thx a lot for the tip. I was not aware of that at all.

I just rechecked and I can now see those two posts too, without subscribing myself: probably someone else from here had subscribed first ;)

Just had a look, there is no post at all for the moment?

Edit a bit later: there are a few posts already, see @threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works answer just below my comment.

(and I subbed ;))

Maybe you should post something(s) right now and not wait until January if you want people to sub or, like you mentioned, to start suggesting ideas.

Imho, the perspective of facing an empty community with zero discussion going on until next January will not encourage participation.

I refrain from participating in and even from looking at any community that generates anxiety and/or anger, or that encourage or don’t oppose what I consider destructive or hostile behaviors. I consider time too precious to waste mine with the kind of persons who enjoy those things.

It is not related to any specific place, though. It’s mostly a question of the persons participating and of the moderators.

I appreciate your feedback and understand where you’re coming from. However, I believe

You’re more than welcome to believe whatever you want. That does not make it a fact. And certainly not something I’m interested in or I’m willing to consider worth discussing.

Have a nice day.

Hello Science Community, Thank you for taking the time to review this manuscript. While it includes philosophical elements, it also explores scientific ideas that I hope will spark thoughtful discussion and constructive criticism. I look forward to your feedback. Thank you again!

You are sharing your personal opinion in that text (and, yep, I read it). That’s not science and it’s not philosophy.

Opinions are fine. I mean, we all have opinions and they can differ widely from person to person. That’s the reason why they’re called personal opinions. But they’re just that, opinions, aka the expression of personal judgments/values and personal preferences.

‘I don’t like bananas’ is a personal preference of mine. ‘I think bannas taste like shit’ is my personal opinion on them. My preference and my opinion say absolutely nothing about bananas and their qualities as a fruit. At best, they state a fact about me. Not about the bananas which, obviously, are perfectly fine fruits whether I like them or not.

Despite the intense dumbing down going on on in our societies, opinions and preferences don’t make a science. And if they can sometimes be considered a starting point to a (or some makeshift) philosophy , they still need a little more work — the important words in the latter definition being ‘system’, ‘analysis’, ‘theory’ and ‘understanding’, not expressing one’s opinions.
