Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

I don't know whether to blame this on reddit, toxic masculinity, or plain old British culture, but it seems that men on the internet will take absolutely anything as a sign of weakness, which means you don't deserve their help.

If you don't know the answer, just say so, don't be a little bitch about it and tell me to give up.

Can't believe I made an account for this.

I had to leave Reddit because it muddied my perception of humanity. They really will turn even the most trusting person into a misanthrope, and they don't even try to. That's just the way Redditors are. It's in their nature just like fish swimming, squirrels climbing trees, and pigeons flying.

Scrolling r/all is like mainlining contempt.

I used to scroll r/all all the time before the API debacle and I thought it was okay until I saw it without my massive filter list I'd been building for almost a decade.

Yeah it gets ok after about a year of blocking subs which suck more than average, but I deleted my account after getting sucked into one to many stupid arguments and now going on raw r/all just instantly fills me with a mix of anger and despair.

I accidentally pressed r/all and it immediately made me alt-f4 because jesus fucking christ.

its so funny that when I first found reddit in 2011 I was always frustrated by how fucking positive everyone was all the time, even if it was a LARP
