should we be discussing reddit less? (beehaw.org)

Seems like a good portion of the activity in the communities is reddit oriented. If the goal is leaving/hurting reddit, it seems we should be continuing on like it doesn't exist, instead of continuing to drive interest to the site. Thoughts?

It's similar to when a work colleague comes back from holiday and you can hear them recount their holiday stories to everyone else.

Yes, it gets boring quickly but the novelty will soon wear off and at some point the colleague will become self aware that they are repeating the same stories over and over and die a little inside.

Take it upon yourself to post comment other than Reddit or about how everyone posts about Reddit
