Only if we consider "reddit users" to only encompass those who actively post/upvote/downvote.
As is almost always the case with most content sites, I would expect the number of non-interacting users absolutely dwarfs the number who do use those interactive features, and most of them probably don't care.

I am very ready to hit the weights after the tri and vacation at the end of the month.

Yeah i suppose I feel comfortable logging my weight with you guys and I bet it would be a great motivator. Then you guys can kick my ass for only going to the gym ~2ce a week too.

All this fitness talk just reminds me I've been skipping out on bjj for 2 weeks cuz of moving. That combined with eating out due to movong.... I've gained 10lbs already. Ripppppppppppppppppppp
Edit: link it

Yea go ahead link it. I'm back into the swing of things but still not quite where I was before my break. If you want to stick to TL you could do maybe a weekly "update" blog where people go post how their gym week went if they want to sign up and if they don't post they get wrecked by some mod :D
edit: sigh, I'm like the only guy here trying to put on weight. All this talk about people easily putting it on even if they don't want it makes me so envious.

Pretty sure alaric is in same boat as you.
Considering how annoyingly difficult and tedious it was for me to drop 70lbs, any lb gained (not from daily variance) now just kills me a little on the inside.

I'm in the same boat buddy. 67kg working towards 75. Trying to maintain the same fat% but with €0,50 beers at the faculty it's quite the task.

I used to weigh under 50 in highschool but now I'm at like 58 so it's not too bad. All that whiskey and coke does work.

Just to to /r/kpics + Show Spoiler +No Req, that's not you anymore. We've talked about this
Just got to /r/warhammer40k. There's a guy there who does a weekly post about a person or conflict in the 40k verse and they're all pretty solid. Compilation, has all of the Primarchs, most of the Horus Heresy major figures, and a few other things.

I really love consuming Reddit, I'm just not much of a contributor.

Its no disaster, its a treasure trove of information on how silicon valley didn't understand why reddit was popular to begin with. I think it speaks more to the power of a vocal minority to fling shit and make everyone else pay for it. huh? by definition the minority doesn't get heard on /r/all I think the majority of reddit users enjoyed the free speech ideal they had before they changed it. not sure how you think everyone is paying for people complaining about that policy change either. I probably shouldn't talk about this anymore though so as not to get warned after being told to stop talking about it yesterday. but yeah, selective shadow banning things based on arbitrary rules that are not applied universally is usually a bad policy. suck it up cixah you can do it! the place will fall apart if you dont show up and I bet your boss knows it! refuse to work the weekend! muscle through and succeed! p.s. yesterday people got the idea that i was defending the people in that subreddit. I wasnt. i have never contributed to reddit and just like viewing stuff I just also recognize the hypocrisy and am enjoying the good shitstorm with my unbuttered unsalted popcorn.
the algorithm to getting to the front page of all isn't just total upvotes. a page being at the top there doesn't preclude the idea of a vocal minority getting it there. moreover, the non vocal majority not downvoting it kind of perpetuates the idea.
oh I just read the rest of your post. sorry, I hadn't realized we were getting warnings for this.

The vocal minority is what drives places like Reddit. Which I guess you also dont get. There are people who just browse (me) and don't frequent /new, but the site doesn't work with a bunch of people like that on it. Plus I think a lot of Reddit's appeal was always its "edgy" side, otherwise people would just go to google news.

TU/e. You're in Amsterdam right?
Technical Universities are dirt cheap, mostly because of zero women. Like next year has ~3% women...
On reddit, I have /r/asoiaf, /r/wicked_edge, /r/fitness, /r/yms, /r/parahumans, /r/books and /r/electronicmusic.
Pretty satisfied with my frontpage.
