I hate these "only a small amount of people will understand" posts

This is a good "I am Very Smart" candidate which surprisingly doesn't seem to have an active community here on Lemmy yet...and I might be just fine with that now that I think about it. It seemed like half the posts there on Reddit either were mean spirited, called out the wrong side in an argument, or were actually smart.

Yeah I don't think anything of value is lost if we don't recreate all they bully subreddits.

They're unhealthy for their subjects, of course, because imagine seeing a post you made when you were younger on one of those subs and reading all the comments about how terrible a person you are

But they're also unhealthy for the subscribers and readers - rage scrolling will fuck you up
