Kinda disagree here. In its heyday, Slashdot could send a pretty hefty
firehose of traffic if you made the front page. This was ~8+ years ago,
though, then Digg started to supplant Slashdot [1], and then Reddit and
other sites crushed Digg, etc.
Sorry; obscure comment. It's a joke because at least as early as 1999 there
was Slashdot trend which became kind of a meme where people would complain
about how the site sucked compared to how it used to be. Not that Slashdot
effect wasn't real.
