The Takeout is the only reason left to keep Kinja alive (aside from Oppo, of course).
Fight me.

I very rarely come across anything from The Takeout, but with that said... A few of my favorite kinja posts ever are from that slice of the community. They really go deep with the investigative journalism.

I agree. Some of the good Kinja regulars are there too.

The Takeout is good - it helps that they have a Chicago contingent, too, since I’m here.
Other than an occasional misguided foray to Jellopnic, it's the only Kinja site I ever visit outside of Oppo.

Kate Bernot was the only reason I read the takeout. She had an appreciation for mexi fries and was a Certified beer judge. It’s almost as bad as life hacker now.

I like ‘Skillet’ too, on L ifehacker, though I’m not a fan of Lifehacker itself.

It’s the only other kinja place I visit. I read about how I should have all this things in my pantry and when I go to make it all I see are tortillas

Did I miss something? Are we expecting another potential Kinjapocalypse?

I don’t think there are signs saying as such, but with a lot of writers leaving Jalopnik lately and the fact a lot of the sites never rebounded after the last potential kinjapocalypse
, some people are thinking the Kinjaverse may be slowly imploding....or so is my guess.
The only sites on Kinja I visit are Gizmodo (specifically only the science articles), Jalopnik (as there are still a fair number of articles I enjoy) and Oppo. I visit Oppo by FAR the most.

No. I have just been drinking and ruminating on the value of the Kinja blogs.

They are good entertainment with the occasional smoke that makes you feel good about the human race.

I miss her badly, but Allison is still worth reading.

And Jalopnik, but only for David Tracy and Torch’s articles.

I like Torch’s articles, and I used to enjoy when Raphe did his researched investigative reports. But I haven’t seen one for a while.
It’s all about taste, but most of Tracy’s work I don’t gravitate toward.

Honestly, take a minute a go click around the other kinja sites. It’s kinda depressing. Kotaku and Jalopnik have strong comment sections, which leads me to belive they are doing alright, some some of the others have, like, no comments on any of their articles. It’s spooky.....

IDK, the root seems pretty well rooted
