    This comment has gained traction and has turned into a conversation.

    So this site is also banning objectionable content? If this is the route that snapzu is going down, I might as well stick to reddit. Or maybe try out Voat.

    That's actually the nicest thing about snapzu I've noticed: People don't disagree by downvoting.

    It's important not to equate the defending of hate speech with the desire to produce hate speech oneself. I'm not sure what's happened in the last few years but it seems that the tolerance for free and open discussion has really waned. It's disheartening to see an new platform like snapzu follow that trend

    Those TOS are fairly broad and a lot can be read into them. Right now racism and hate speech seem like a fairly low barrier to set but it's a slippery slope.

    On the other hand, my problem with Reddit isn't so much the banning of content so much as the lack of transparency and consistency. The capricious nature of the censorship offends me more than the censorship itself. In that sense I suppose that snapzu has a chance of approaching this issue, which all websites have to deal with, in a more open and transparent way

    Isn't Reddit a website similar to Reddit that's willing to shut down hate speech and racism?

    1) I can see how this would be useful if you switch browsers a lot. 2) I can see how "y! <query>" is considerably shorter than typing "yahoo.com <tab> <query>".

    I tend to use chrome most of the time and the extra typing doesn't really bother me. Especially since I really don't get much use out of this feature in chrome. I honestly use google 95%+ of the time. But I can see how your use case can differ.

    I just feel that people sell this as a revolutionary killer feature when it really seems like a minor refinement of something people could do already.

    The tab feature in chrome does not bring you to the website. If your search "!imdb hurtlocker" in duckduckgo it will bring up the imdb search result page for the query 'hurtlocker'. In chrome, if you type "imdb.com" + tab + "hurtlocker" it will bring up the exact same page. To be clear, these features aren't similar; there exactly the same. The "tab" feature just does the same thing as the bag feature.

    I like this place. I just wish it was a little more lively. A lot of these posts have very little comments.

    Is this guy serious? This is a feature built directly into browsers. In chrome, you just need to press "tab". For example, "Amazon" + tab or "Youtube" + tab.

    Why the hell would I want to use website for that?
