For me it's been communities like /r/buildapc, /r/buildapcforme, /r/buildapcsales, /r/gamedeals, and /r/consoledeals have been useful throughout the years.

I'm not sure if it's within scope of beehaw, 'cause I know that the meme page here already asks for people not to upload images directly to save server space (which I totally respect) but I really lurked and enjoyed r/egg_IRL and r/traa and I'm definitely keeping my eye out for where the trans meme share lands.

I was really enjoying r/me_irlgbt lately. And r/traaaaaaannnnnssss (definitely the wrong number of letters here).

I agree the trans memes are valuable, especially these days. They're a hopeful spot in a dark world rn.

Edit: I like r/egg_irl too but it does sometimes have a tendency toward some problems with people calling other people eggs who might not actually be eggs, instead of just talking about themselves. The effect being a weird roundabout gender roles policing.

Yeah, definitely the downside of that community. I'm definitely there for the personal 'this was/is my journey' egg memes, call outs about 'egg like behavior' aren't ok.

[–] hoyland@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

I'm not a fan of the whole "egg" concept for precisely that reason.
