There's always been a wierd antagonism between LinkSwarm and Fark as long as I can remember, and I've never really understood it. I never look at Fark -- it has literally zero place in my life, good or bad -- but if I did, and thought it worked better for me than the Swarm, then I'd just do that instead.
I wouldn't, for example, bother doing this kind of thing...
after i check out the five links per day that get approved here i go over for a quick look. apparently submitters here get their links from there anyway.
which reads like 'Hey, I like this one massive world-famous site and I also spend time going around looking at smaller sites and telling them they're not the massive world-famous site, lol lol'. What's the motivation?
