I strongly agree with your sentiment. There is absolutely less karma whoring here and it makes the place nicer to be in. Jokes stop being funny after about the thousandth time but the circlejerk stopped them from dying.
I love that you don't have to trawl through a mile long pun thread before you find a comment that is actually novel or contributes to a discussion.
Then again it's not like this place is perfect, there was the bean thing which was funny for about five minutes but went on for weeks and meme accounts which are the same old flogging jokes to death that you were talking about.
