Or the fediverse in general.

I wanted to ask everyone their personal least favorite communities on reddit.

Whic subreddits do you absolutely not (personally of course) want to see recreated as magazines here on kbin, or as fediverse communities in general?

My pet peeve is CMV. I always felt while the idea seemed doable on the surface, the implementation within that particular subreddit with the delta system, the requirement for the top level comments to oppose the OP even if the “view” is an established expert consensus on something like climate change made it impossible to have meaningful conversations.

I haven’t checked if we have a CMV magazine here, but as soon as I see one, I know I’m blocking it.

What is your “instant block” community?

    In addition to what others have said: The endless, constant, relentless OnlyFans self promotion. I don’t mind NSFW, I don’t mind porn. But by god I lost brain cells each time I read

    “I AM SUCH A YOUNG SLUT, OH WOE IS ME, WHERE ARE ALL THE OLDER MEN WHO WOULD WANT ME!?!?!?!?!?”
    “COMMENT YOUR AGE IF YOU’D HAVE ME <3”

    fixing exclusively to find people with money to reel in. Good lord… I get it, we all have to earn a living and darn if I were a pretty woman in this day and age, I might go down that same route. Yet… Can’t stand it anymore. Same goes for the people engaging with such posts.

      OnlyFans in general is a complete fucking racket. Most “creators”, who are young and often vulnerable people, make nothing or next to nothing from subs, even while taking on risks they may not know about or be able to mitigate them if they do know about them.

      The world would actually be better without it.

        I was told that OnlyFans was started by the mods in some of the NSFW subreddits who used their position of power to recruit the early adopters from the highest upvoted posts in their subs.
