I was standing on the street today when a man and woman passed me. The man was heatedly explaining to the woman about the reddit strike. I overheard him say “It’s the third largest subreddit…” and he was making hand gestures I could see as they walked past. (Which one is the third largest?)
I was half a mind to run after him and say “I want to talk to you about this! I understand!!” But I couldn’t think of what would happen next, other than ruining their evening. They seemed to be on their way to go somewhere. Hopefully to talk about something other than reddit.
That’s all. I usually never have IRL observations of reddit.
How is /r/Announcements more popular?
Because everyone is subbed to it at account creation and I doubt that’s one most people would ever leave.
