This post and the discussions here make me wonder why it took so long for me to discover this wonderful website.

For sure. As a redditor myself, it was a pain having to go to a certain subreddit and post feelings there rather than being able to do that here with no repercussions (or random strangers getting upset at you).

For only being here for a few minutes, I already love this.

It really is cool, isn't it? I've been on reddit for over a year and I've commented maybe twice in that time, yet I find this today and I'm actually taking because I feel like I can just join in on the conversations here, where on Reddit I always felt like I'd be almost attacked if people disagreed. Plus it's hard to have meaningful chat when every other thread is a pun thread!

Yes! The only subreddit I think I would have enjoyed posting to was /r/casualconversation, but I found out about it too late. I'm ready to move onto a site that's purely for this kind of stuff.

It was only recently when I joined this website. I was scrolling aimlessly until I came across a post by insomniasexx "In The Future, Our Attention Will Be Sold".

Going to that website kind of enabled me to start taking better care of myself and which in turn helped me relate to other people better. One of the most important things I learnt was to not take things as personal and deeply as I would've thought, allowing me to open up to people more easily. This ebook actually helped me out a great deal. I'm still working on my anxiety even right now and the struggle isn't over yet, but I've come a long way from what I was.

Hubski is a hell of a change from Reddit and I only wish I found it sooner.

I understand how you feel. This wonderful place is like a grown up reddit, it is responsible, intelligent, even mature. I love it.
