There's less Reddit meta content on Reddit, why did I come here?

The problem I'm seeing lately is that a lot of folks are bringing some of the things that were already unbearable about reddit with them...

Like "based", "this", "underrated comment", etc... So much stupid lazy garbage.

Edit: to OP... The "this" referenced in my comment was not directed at your title (hilariously enough)... I only meant that one as a one word comment reply and didn't even realize that was your title when I commented... 😂

At least there's no gold to thank kind strangers for on Lemmy.

Or this is the way.....arggghh stop

Agreed... Low effort and contributes literally nothing to any discussion.

I'm starting to think that the people that do these things are just reinventing trolling... Trying to get other people's blood pressure up ...

Well, congratulations if that's the case folks... That shit works.

I'm very surprised some hilarious twat hasn't replied to you with one of those examples, which you can usually rely on. Still, there's hope for this comment.

Damn.

Now that you mention it I'm kind of surprised, too.

Probably won't be long now... Lol

I do love being jokey, I can never seem to tell if I went too low or am annoying people, I never have done a stock one-liner before tho

Unfortunately unless we are absolute in our condemnation of low-effort comments, they will eventually proliferate and become "accepted" and commonplace.

It's not super common yet on Lemmy, but as we get more popular the race to the bottom for low-effort comments is inevitable.

That's quite possible... All I can do is my part in downvoting them and voicing my discontent with it when appropriate in the hopes that some of the group who are unaware it's annoying (if that's any of them) may change their behavior when or if they realize it.

Maybe I'm just a fuddy duddy... Lol
