And yet, somehow, now it's my fault ...

r/AskHistorians is ok.

it's funny how redditors writ large simply do not understand the concept of an actually moderated space where you need sources for what you post, so every remotely popular question gets filled up with a lot of [deleted] as idiots kramer in to give their uninformed take before getting shot down

I'm subscribed to a bunch of language and travel subreddits that are just plagued by the most basic, low effort questions:

* I travelled somewhere and it low-key sucked. Help me get through this.
* I want to travel, where should I travel to?
* Is $300 enough to go backpacking through Europe for 12 months?
* Stayed in hostel and it was noisy
* What's the difference between 'el' and 'la' in Spanish? (like the content of your very first Spanish lesson)
* I want to learn a language, which should I learn?
* Learning (language) is hard, should I give up?
* (Language learning method) is bad / awesome and you should feel bad / awesome

But after one set of complaints, a mod of one of the travel subreddits replied, saying that they were trying to reduce the number of dumb posts. They were already deleting a huge number but there was a flood of trash and they were drowning. AskHistorians is one of the few spaces there that has mastered the idiocy of their audience.

r/woodworking is decent, partly because they have a rule of any post that contains an item that is a flag or national symbol can be allowed, but discussion is immediately locked so you can't try to stir poo poo by posting your lovely american flag pallet wood piece in front of a case of Black Rifle Coffee with the title "There are only 2 genders" or whatever the gently caress.

r/aww is full of cute animals
r/natureislit is full of awesome nature photos
r/peoplefuckingdying is full of schadenfreude - do NOT confuse with r/peopledying
r/facepalm is full of people being idiots
r/damnthatsinteresting is full of cool photos

You can find a lot of great subs just by scrolling r/all. But be careful, since the start of the Ukraine war, there has been a huge uptick in gore and death videos. And it's only gotten worse since Israel went full lebensraum.

Saw one today of an Israeli guy getting out of his car to pull down a Palestinian flag someone had put on the side of the road in some knee high grass only it was linked to a hidden bomb under the ground. So, when he pulled the flag out of the ground :(. Not even in a war sub, just one of those ones that's a string of random letters and numbers so you have no idea of what you're about to see when the 5 second video autoplays.

Just found out about this earlier. Apparently r/worldnews wasn't moderated, or they weren't doing their job, and it got overrun with people spamming and posting nudes. So the members created r/anime_titties both as a 'gently caress you' to the mods and somewhere to serious post about world news.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

/worldnews got shockingly racist after october 7th and probably not in the way that you think!

drat, I remember hearing about that sub a million years ago. I think it was back during the pedogeddon, when goons were finding just the worst poo poo imaginable. Even with subs like deadn*****rjailbait coming to light, it still creeped me out enough to stand out in my memory.

Can't believe it's still around.

One time I trolled a lunatic regular in the conspiracy sub for like a month. Even though I was obviously the bad guy and my victim was in good standing the mods helped me tease the guy.

I mean, all you have to do is mention it getting renamed and redditors will be happy to tell you how it totally wasn't racist, it was actually just a funny name for a subreddit and maybe you're the real racist for having a problem with it?
