Great, but this isn’t that. This is the fediverse where the existence of unique subcultures are promoted and celebrated.
The only thing happening here is that redditors who are coming over to fedi for the first time are having a culture shock when they’re exposed to anything outside of “thanks for the gold gentlesir”, “rip my inbox” and nasally snorting about some logical fallacy in a basic conversation. Which is funny because the rest of the internet has always viewed reddit culture as a freakish attempt to act like being Sheldon Cooper from Big Bang is a good thing. Bazinga!
Not everything being specifically like this. But I’ll unironically say yes to everything being different and interesting. The problem here however is that you’re just railing against this because it’s something you dislike, while failing to acknowledge just how cringe parts of the culture that you do like are. I’m trying to highlight that not because there’s anything wrong with liking it (you do you!) but because you don’t exist in a space without weird culture yourself, you just don’t see it because you’ve completely normalised it, just like these subculture bubbles also have for the stuff that you immediately think is weird.
Sadly you’re now doing the thing where you don’t actually listen to what I’m saying and instead talk past me instead of to me. I haven’t called you a sanitised corpo drone.

Ok, That’s it. Clearly.
I think everything should have that myspace vibe. Because without it we’d be sanitized corpo drones.
