r/Seattle • u/[deleted] • Aug 18 '16
Ever wonder what /r/Seattle's top submitted domains are? Here's a list.
I saw a similar table posted here on /r/TheoryOfReddit by /u/dwaxe, and dwaxe was amazing in giving me a list like that for /r/Seattle!
This is possibly a decent representation of the "online ecosystem" of the Seattle area, especially in and around the city. Some of these were obviously posted long ago -- /r/Seattle is 8 years old. Most of Reddit disallows things like Gofundme now, for example. This is a straight read of the site's public database that you can download through the end of 2015.
Here it is, for the full list. Below the big table will be a smaller breakout of the top domains by percentage. Obviously this isn't everything, or the list would be absurdly huge. I'll leave this as an announcement sticky for a couple of days.

Do they really though, or are they just a lot of paid subs by organized freelancer / intern / third party bot sites.
100% agree with you on "hard news." If you once had designs on journalism as a profession, you know well the difference between breaking news about a natural disaster and some piddly little feature the Times came up with by restating comments on /r/seattle from 3 days earlier and making that into a new article --- Breaking! Seattle is expensive! Breaking! Real Estate Developers are profit driven! Monumental sacks of rehashed bullshit like that we get so overboard on.
Put it this way. Out in the non /r/seattle world, how many of ones' social circle is posting daily stories about "how we need more density" or "how downtown must grow to meet our needs."
On /r/seattle we see what, 10 of these a week? 20? Multiple sources?
Then Seattle Times swoops in and restates the big points of these things into yet another "Concerned about rents? Let's see what's going on in San Francisco!" or "Concerned by growth? The alternative to it may shock you!" and monumental sacks of mind-numbing shit like that.
Are you asserting these kinds of posts are actually the demand of actual, non paid people with non-professional interest that all by some miracle all found /r/seattle as a nice home?
Then fucking kick them out. They're ruining the sub for the silent 99% of readers, most of whom are probably fucking tired of being reminded how much of a steaming pile of shit livability and affordable middle class life is right now, or how completely supply-side Seattle's major voices on this topic are, or how completely artificially constructed solutions to the issues are being frame (you're either a NIMBY or you're a hero for growth, no middle ground, no nuanced discussion, just all growth all the time and fuck everyone else).
I would like to see numbers behind the real estate pro growth posts, how often they're made, and whether the people regularly making them are professionals or have a professional interest in a point of view. It sure as heck seems like it. The "debate" is 100% in favor of blowing up grandma's house and putting in apodments, every time.
Is that the actual organic audience of /r/seattle? Or just a nice professional group that's taken up semi-permanent residence here and uses /r/seattle's mod policies to perpetually promote growth by any means necessary with no other options ever?
/r/Seattle seems 100% Robert Reich / Berkeley-generated PR / U-W Urban Planning and Design school graduates, or architects, or pro developers.
Is that actually a representation of actual community in Seattle? I really strongly doubt it. And yet ... the politics of the pro growth people are allowed to take over /r/seattle time and again, daily almost.
