I don't like Stack Exchange either. As you have noted, to a user it is not intuitive. To a person looking to find "the community" for some project (like TiddlyWiki) I found it very anti-social. So much so that I'm pretty sure it drives some people away. That's what it did to me years ago, it drove me away from a project.
Up to this point, I've stayed out of this thread because I didn't want to be a nay-sayer and didn't want to be the only one. Besides, I don't have a better solution for the problem that this thread is proposing to solve (and I agree, it is a problem). If the community migrates to Stack Exchange, I will make an account there. I did (just now) go back to Stack Exchange to see how it has changed and it does look like it has a much better interface (for a user). For one thing, it isn't popping up a "you should join" overlay like it did the last time I was there (years ago). I poked at a few sites and they do seam to be easier to navigate than I remember.
