I wanted to ask everyone their personal least favorite communities on reddit.
Whic subreddits do you absolutely not (personally of course) want to see recreated as magazines here on kbin, or as fediverse communities in general?
My pet peeve is CMV. I always felt while the idea seemed doable on the surface, the implementation within that particular subreddit with the delta system, the requirement for the top level comments to oppose the OP even if the "view" is an established expert consensus on something like climate change made it impossible to have meaningful conversations.
I haven't checked if we have a CMV magazine here, but as soon as I see one, I know I'm blocking it.
awww really, I had some truly loved bots, especially on certain fandom subreddits, e.g. Brandon Sanderson subs (won't say the name cos it's a spoiler). And /u/gifendor or whatever it was called that showed you the last frame of a gif was a fantastic service. I liked !RemindMe too.
I fully agree some of them were a problem, but imo this is a "baby with the bathwater" situation
They are probably talking about LLM comments that tried to appear human to get upvotes and then get sold on to advertisers/scammers, not Video-download-bot or Palpatine-bot.
