After migrating from Reddit, it’s jarring that comment sections aren’t cluttered with hashtag-style comments that are just links to subreddits like /HoLuP/ (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I love that comment sections here are like, y’know, discussions and stuff. Not just the same jokes and parroted phrases over and over and over.

It was good when it linked to actually interesting new communities, it was bad when it linked to meta-communities just collecting reddit posts - rimjobsteve, foundthemobileuser, holup half the time, cursedcomments, redditmoment, etc.

My hatred for these knows no bounds.

I actually liked those as well. I usually skip usernames so when someone linked rimjob steve I at least checked the username.
