I understand why it's not remembered positively, but this is what got me into Reddit. A bunch of dumbasses around the world sharing a sense of humour with other dumbasses on the other side.
It was funny. The threads were hilarious. I had tons of those old threads screenshotted for memories.
It gave Reddit the personality it had. The flawed, annoying, absolutely toxic yet truly remarkable personality it possessed.
I would love for Lemmy to have one of its own but I truly miss the absolute random bullshittery that Reddit had. I see it happen sometimes on Lemmy. And the hope that I'll get that feeling again keeps me on here.
