Power moderators. There is no justifiable reason for one person to own hundreds of major subs.

I feel like before 2015 reddit was way more free speech focused. Now it seems like every sub will ban you because they don't like you politically or you violated rule 15b paragraph 2.

Basically every sub is run by tiny elons with a power trip.

Echo chamber, calling people "redditors", talking about the site as if everyones a community and knows eachother. It contributes to the hive mind. Just talk to people like normal people. Also, the writing style of anyone telling a story- at least the 4chan ">be me" is funny. The reddit style of just adding too much detail, snarky remarks, and the (22M) after every pronoun.

All the hivemind from reddit. The love for random celebrities. Keanu Reeves doesn't care for any of us here. The love for recycling facts everyone already knows. I don't need to read about how the Appalachian mountains go up to Scotland again.

I think part of the problem is that people don't tend to read the comments on anything before they comment themselves. So you get the same old jokes repeated over and over and people thinking their opinions are really niche and groundbreaking when the exact same opinions are all over that same comment section.

We need a new unit of measurement to replace the banana.

The narwhal bacons at midnight, or whatever the fuck it was. Just ask people if they've heard of Lemmy lol, we don't need some code phrase
