Most effective link-push modes historically: 1997-2001: Email lists 2002-2010: RSS and search 2011-2014: Twitter and Facebok 2015-2018: Email lists again 2019 - ... feels like change is in the air yet again, but unclear how.

Agree with this. Network topology is changing. Unclear exactly how. Far more subterranean groups now (slack, discord, even FB etc) that have meaningful scale.

There's a further wrinkle in that. Aggregator communities (slashdot, hacker news, metafilter, reddit...) were quite important for me early on, but now somehow they seem like sideshows, with a new kind of subterranean structure emerging

Agreed. One thing Twitter did spectacularly was enable a view of "who" is reading your links. There's no good analytics tool that does any kind of CRM modeling to better ensure you're reaching the right kinds of people independent of pageviews.

Also - I think comments play a key role here. Feels like we're on the cusp of a new kind of comments platform for the web. Not sure how or where it'll come from though

This looks like a regular site to me not an overlay. The browser extension just stores comments to the dissenter site and retrieves from there?

Didn’t realize until now you had never heard of it. Remind me to be more careful in assuming a shared map. Kinda ironic...
