Comment on Lemmy feels so much more welcoming than R*ddit... And it's weird

  The better so tired from Reddit. Everyone knows the most recent Reddit trend and the askreddits are filled with them. But the best stories are the ones from 10+ years ago.

  Spanish Reddit is another classic that never gets mentioned. There’s a slew of them if you look at the old “What’s something people on Reddit should know about Reddit” askreddits.

    What does “the better so tired from Reddit” mean? I genuinely can’t tell if you’re trolling me. What you said made no sense. I was on Reddit for a little while and don’t remember Spanish Reddit, poop knife, spooky, or Jesus ads.

      It was a typo lmao. I meant “stories”.

      Idk how long you were on there, but I was there for about 13yrs. and the “inside jokes” can be a little overwhelming at times. The Jesus Ads were the “He Gets Us” ads everywhere, if you never saw one then you must have used a client that didn’t have ads like Apollo, or paid for no ads through other clients.

      As for the stories I’m talking if about, they all happened over a decade ago. You’d have to specifically search for them nowadays because like I said, they never get mentioned in those “Reddit history” askreddit threads anymore. All the stories mentioned nowadays have happened in the last couple years. IIRC, even poop knife is only like 6 or 7 years old.

      Also I’m calling them stories because idk what else to call them. Some are threads, others are comments.

      Oh shit, Streetlamp leMoose was another one I forgot about. Damn, there were so many greats that have been lost to time. The Search and Rescue series on no sleep. Talking about it is bringing up more and more memories.
