I love that comment sections here are like, y’know, discussions and stuff. Not just the same jokes and parroted phrases over and over and over.

    Seems an unpopular opinion here, but I honestly miss this. The whole “using subreddits as hashtags” thing is how I found a number of interesting subs I would have never otherwise even thought to search for. Yeah, some were very big and well known ones like /holup that got repetitive, but others were some niche thing that fit that specific post in a way that I at least found somewhat funny.

        I just didn’t like when people would use them to make fun of each other. Like commenting “r/wooosh” for someone just asking for clarification on something. Using it to say “this comment or post would be appropriate for this subreddit” is fine imo. I just don’t like when people try to put others down to make themselves feel better than other people.
