    I actually liked megathreads, they usually meant big news and I didn’t have to read 20 posts about the same thing.

    But what I disliked about reddit was when trolls from some subreddits would spam CP to get other subreddits closed

      Megathreads for news / events I think are great - for me the annoying part were some of the ongoing megathreads; for example some game subs will drown out basically all actual conversation about gameplay because there a “daily questions thread”. I know they might’ve had an issue with repetitive questions, but there’s gotta be a middle point
