Toxic gatekeeping in communities.
I really hope that the political communities don't devolve into just useless name calling.
What I like are the comments that discuss the nuances of politics. Why things happen the way they do and the strategies, OR even other people's takes on a topic.
What Reddit turned into was is an ass or is <Stupid/fascists/baby killers> Or is too old and stupid. Nothing of substance just writing the same thing someone else wrote in the last post. Got really boring.

Punctuation-free one-word posts so people can be involved without having to participate.
"Sexy sexers of Reddit, what's the sexiest sex you ever sexed?"
"AITA for saying a single unkind word to the man/woman who keeps me as a literal slave, beats old ladies and kicks puppies in the street?"

Snarkiness, snobbery, walking on eggshells, opinion downvotes and in general the unbearable attitude of most redditors.

This is (mostly) only in car subreddits, but actual car owners getting insulted and ridiculed for their new car choice by teenagers. I've seen this before on Reddit and this triggers me to no end.

Too much politics. During the election on Reddit, everything was either ecstatic “Trump good!” or smug “Orange man bad!” posts with no actual content. My list of blocked subreddits ballooned, and that helped. Maybe I’ll have to do that here.

Karma
I don't care about ads on Reddit. They aren't intrusive, although I don't like fake "organic content". I think the worst thing is seeing the same thing over and over again in the same sub, being reposted by bots. It's OK if it's from time to time, but they don't even try to change the title.

r/Piracy’s megathread was very useful
Awards. At least in Apollo you could hide them.
