Just curious, are you upvoting stuff on the "new" page? I see a lot of stuff that I think is interesting get few if any votes, and then slides off to obscurity. As you noted, this is a community, and so all have to play their part. If you and a few others upvote interesting stuff, it probably finds its way to the front page to fend for itself.
Yes, regularly. I use the "New" page as my main landing, before visiting the "Front" page. Every time I visit I upvote everything that I think is of value.
