Starting a thread on we compile a list of the top 10 100 because the existing advice contradicts itself. Applied to percent sites, the practical move is to ask a specific question in the first message. If compile sites is your priority, half the frustration disappears once you compare two platforms in the same fortnight.
Look closely at percent sites and how fast moderation responds is the number worth watching, not the follower count on their socials. Same story on compile: the platform caps how many searches you run a day, so it pays to set the radius tighter than feels natural.
Every time compile comes up, the gap between sign-ups and active users tells you more than the number of features listed. How fast moderation responds is worth more than the number of features listed, though I'd want someone to check me on this — and that goes double for we compile a list of the top 10 100. Numbers on percent sites appreciated if you kept any.
