I wrote a thing and Reddit noticed
The Worldbuilding blog, Universe Factory, is still fairly small; we're new and trying to grow. So I was surprised when my latest article, Worldbuilding As You Go: A Case Study, in which I describe a process by analogy with train games, got lots of views in just a few hours. (I mean hundreds, not hundreds of thousands, but more than I'm used to.) Curious about where it was linked (it must have been linked, right?), I looked into the referrers and found Reddit. I didn't know there was a worldbuilding sub-reddit, though I guess I shouldn't be surprised. There are sub-reddits for practically everything, after all.
I've not used Reddit before. Is bookmarking that page and occasionally visiting it the best way to keep an eye out for other interesting material on this topic? Assuming I don't want to commit a large amount of time to that, is just going with the community voting to cull the vast pile of material the way to go, or are there easy personalization options?
