Great writing on the current Reddit saga. The author put down in words a lot of things in my mind I couldn't find the right words.

I had the same experience. That said, I also was apparently in mid sized subs, or the ones that were sort of Q&A (sysadmin, askphotography) so I never saw a sense of community. I might recognize 5 usernames as having good or bad answers / comments, but being topic focused (even tv or movies was like this) I never really formed any kind of connection.

The closest I could see like that is actually on things like the subs discord where you're kind of shooting the shit a lot more, and it seems more ephemeral. Like Photography discord has an off topic and a computer and a tv channel as well as a lounge / anything channel. These are the photography people talking about other stuff too so you kind of can get to know them. On reddit these are all different subs, so you'll never get the photography subs feeling about the latest anime...

Idk, I also may just be strange.
