I'm guilty of this one myself, but imo reddit-style usernames.
For a good at least I don't see as much 'this' posting chains and similar. Nothing like clicking into a serious convo in order to troubleshoot something just to find a 'this' chain 20 posts long.
By troubleshooting did you mean stuff like programming or hobby communities where people post their issue and people try to help them? Maybe it's just the communities I use, but I found that those are the last tolerable places on Reddit specifically because the rules on professionalism and high effort posts are quite strict, so a "this" chain will most likely get removed.
Honestly, those communities are the last ones keeping me on Reddit. Once Lemmy gets big enough that I can post help threads and actually get answers, I'm gone from Reddit for good.
Super late response, iirc I was trying to get a lga 775 back up and running with whatever I found lying around, the posts were ancient, of the sort you mutter to yourself 'usersoandso' how did you fix it', and they left without sharing their enlightenment with the rest of the internet.
Same here, especially since I'm sharing Reddit with at least 3 other people and we all have to be wary of getting banned.
