The spammy ones with no substance.

r/thatsinsane
r/therewasanattempt
r/notinteresting
r/mildlyinteresting
r/oddlysatisfying
You know, the ones that kept on coming up on r/all all the time, but where you couldn't even tell which of them it was by just looking at the posts themselves...
Many of those subs started out good, but the content lost meaning as they grew. Subs that were supposed to highlight really impressive stuff became mediocre, and not interesting/mildly interesting became genetic content.
It's a catch 22. In order for a sub to stay good, it needs mods that are iron fisted with keeping out content that doesn't fit. When you do that, the community hates you for deleting their posts.
