But really? Is Disqus really all that bad?

No can do. Not without Brittany Murphy.

Fair point.

They're moving because Univision-Gawker told them to move.

Think of it this way:

There is no spoon.

So… this seems to be the entire news in a nutshell:

Maybe that's why they started going all-in with politics here over the last year?

No need for a question. Your anger is well-placed and reflective in most of the worry here.

They're all gone. HitFix, RIP. Collider is mostly garbage. Uproxx definitely is garbage outside of Sepinwall. Everything else is going to be geared towards certain aspects of fandom. SuperHeroHype. The Mary Sue.

I think when we get moved over, we'll all be pre-ranked, and it's less about quota than about standing. I'm a likely Two. I think my libertarian leanings will prevent me from ever being a Three. ;-)

Only if .gifs work.

Kinja is basically Meow Meow Beenz.

Deadspin is a hive of scum and villainy.

Again, it's all a matter of perspective. :-)

Correct. Well… it's not "almost impossible" to follow a conversation in Kinja.

Correct. And good luck trying to use email as a way to respond to everything if you want.

That's exactly what certain people at HitFix began doing before the switch to Uproxx as well. They deleted any dissenters, even those who were painstakingly polite in their disagreement.

Yeah… that's not going to be possible.

The last days of HitFix were like watching Quint's final moments in Jaws.
