Circlejerk communities. They almost always end up being worse than the actual places they make fun of.

Help me name my pet, because I have no creatively or originality and am a karma whore.

Just less outrage, more harmony.

Entire post that are just a screencap from a tv show with an unedited quote as the title. Those used to flood any show specific sub to the point of annoyance. They add nothing to the conversation.

the black and white mindset... you're either with the hivemind or against. no room for nuanced opinions. someone posts a stupid strawman argument pro abortion/anti billionaire/etc.. you can't point out the flaw in the logic without being called a sexist racist Nazi.

example: some post about how billionaires should pay 35% tax on their net worth, you point out that people are taxed on their income, not possessions, you're a bootlicker

obligatory _

Long, thought out posts with replies that consist solely of something like "you're*"

This.

constant cyclejerk to farm upvotes. also the fact that on reddit if you dont commonet within like 1hr of post creation you have basically no chance of getting top voted / talking on that thread

I only want to see the number of upvotes and downvotes like in the olden time.

Not sure if from Reddit, but I would love to see external links open in a new tab by default.

Those 1 pushup for each upvote. Like ffs you don't exercise for imaginary karma number

Bots.

Death-penalty-for-jaywalking moderation.

TikTok reposts.

The pile of different dumb awards like "wholesome" or those expensive diamond things.

Power-tripping users that somehow have access to hundreds of sub-communities and lean heavily on automodding and just reacting by absolutes because they lack problem solving skills.

Shitty, unfunny jokes that spiral into lengthy comment chains that are a chore to weed through. Keep that shit on Reddit, because everyone pretends they're some downtrodden, unspoken stand up comedian on there.

Thought policing.

Word policing. Yeah I get that we shouldn't say n***** and stuff. But, why go through the trouble of censoring swears? I mean come on, we've grown up to have the privilege of airing those words out!

shills; toxicity; brigading; endless conspiracy theories.

I'd love more political debate without censorship from either side. I want to hear every argument either side has, even if the argument is dumb. I want to hear the rebuttals people give for the beliefs I have, because that is the only way to check myself.

I would like regulation for these discussions to be more about personal insults, rather than if an idea is deemed too offensive or not (which is arbitrary to begin with). When a debate devolves into insults, there's no point in continuing the conversation anyway.

Sorting by controversial. It became an unhealthy habit for me. Almost like I was enjoying my anger.

Businesses, Celebrities, Internet "personalities", parasocial relationships. Anything that turns things into a popularity contest rather than genuine 1 to 1 conversation.
