It’s been a lot of fun so far. It reminds me of the earlier days of the internet, which is a breath of fresh air. The culture on reddit has been clicheed for a long time now. At least people stopped saying ‘the narwhal bacons at midnight’, and ‘and my axe’ is only ironic now, but the pun threads, the Ouija chains, the silly automods and bots - I had enough of that. Also it’s absurd to try to comment on a post that has 6,500 or whatever replies already.
What would make me hard quit a thread was when somebody would comment a quote from a show that was actually relevant & funny to the topic at hand, but then it would create an endless chain of reply comments of completely irrelevant quotes from the same show. Like, ok we get it, you got the joke, please stop.
