Thank you Slashdot. You created one of the greatest communities on the internet. Yeah, it is a community, despite the fact that we mostly argue with each other all the time:-) No other site comes close to being as insightful and interesting, and occasionally hilarious.
I'm sure there will be lots of "Slashdot is dying" posts, but I think it is more of an inevitable change. Long gone as the Emacs vs. vi holy wars, to be replaced with the Android vs. iOS wars. How long ago the late 90s seem now.
At least we are still seeing sensible comments here in slashdot
That's a bit of a hassle, isn't it? But Slashdot has all the necessary tools - judicious use of moderation filter and the enemy list takes care of that, and you can finally enjoy your iOS vs Android flamewars in peace, without some smartass trying to break it up!
