I really hope that the political communities don't devolve into just useless name calling.
What I like are the comments that discuss the nuances of politics. Why things happen the way they do and the strategies, OR even other people's takes on a topic.
What Reddit turned into was is an ass or is <Stupid/fascists/baby killers> Or is too old and stupid. Nothing of substance just writing the same thing someone else wrote in the last post. Got really boring.
Power Mad Mods. The ones in r/StarTrek were horrible, banning people for any “negativity” and actually banning people for what they said in other subreddits.
"Thanks for the gold kind stranger!"
all the excessive awards
people making entire threads of stupid puns
typing out song lyrics
that dumb broken arms thing
r/thathappened or any variation of the above, or even stupider, one of those posting the name of the sub and some goofball below asks to be included in the picture of the post that they uploaded to said subreddit
r/Piracy’s megathread was very useful
Awards. At least in Apollo you could hide them.
Karma
This is (mostly) only in car subreddits, but actual car owners getting insulted and ridiculed for their new car choice by teenagers. I've seen this before on Reddit and this triggers me to no end.
A better and less toxic mod relationships to the common users on their subreddits. Dear god its like most of them think they are "King of the World" my brother in Christ you are working for free on website making millions of your labor and you ain't getting nothing. Get your head out of ass.
I don't care about ads on Reddit. They aren't intrusive, although I don't like fake "organic content". I think the worst thing is seeing the same thing over and over again in the same sub, being reposted by bots. It's OK if it's from time to time, but they don't even try to change the title.
