I’m ok with that. I went back on reddit after hanging out here for a while. There’s a lot more content of course, but the comment sections were largely trash. A lot of dumb jokes and circlejerks and way too many people to actually converse with anyone.
It also seemed to me that a growing number of comments in recent years there on product-relates posts (e.g., what’s the best language learning app?) reeked of companies promoting their own products rather (e.g., someone’s post history was selectively related to promoting some app after a period of inactivity). I haven’t seen things like that here at all, which is nice.

I remember that too. Always creeped me out.
