We've had a post discussing what subreddits you will miss so it makes sense to discuss the ones that, hopefully, we won't see here.

For me, personally, it would have to be any subreddit about dating. Whether it's complaining about dating or giving dating advice those subs really tend to draw those are bitter about their dating prospects. Just lots of anger and negativity in those communities.

By my reckoning it was a reasonably fun spot to shitpost about politics and poke fun at each other, but when The_Donald got banned it seemed to pick up a lot of refugees (oh the irony) and the mods did nothing to stem the tide of sexist, racist, homophobic, etc. garbage. I used to pop in once in a while for a sensible chuckle, but after the change I blocked it.

I quit there at roughly the same time. It probably goes more right wing & the memes are lower effort. Recently I see it once and it's just some colored right wing circlejerks.
