A few examples include s*x questions on askreddit, “this” comments, nolife powermods, jokes being more frequent than actual answers

    Yes, thank you. Excessive prudishness and self censoring is always an indicator to me that a community is going a weird direction.

      In the last year I started noticing on Reddit people typing the ‘letter’-word and half the time I wouldn’t know what word they are referring to.

      On a couple occasions I would reply asking what word they meant and they would reply that I should know, with my comment downvoted.

      That reminds me of another thing I was sick of seeing, people asking a question and getting told to google it or that lmgtfy link. You would later see people in the comments mentioning that Google took them there when Googling for it.
