If public, users see discussion & incites them to join. Similar to Omega/Reddit.
Right now it's a secret club with no user growth.
You make a good point. Main reason Indon't have it public is web crawlers will be able to see thread titles. Some threads might show up in search engines at some point if we do that.
I'll switch it and see how it goes for a bit.
I made threads viewable to guests but they cant interact or view the actual content. They can upvote though. Removed captcha for user creation seems people with brave browser having issues with it.
Oh? Interesting. I am using Brave and had no issues. However, this may go back to the computer versus mobile. Perhaps on mobile it is greatly more difficult.
