This is what I am hoping will happen. With the current reddit structure, for each topic, you have multiple communities -
The noob-friendly one that is not actively moderated and has a lot of reposts and garbage content
The offshoot that was created because the main sub went downhill. Has stricter moderation and content policies.
The meme offshoot that was created because the main sub banned memes.
The circlejerk version.
/r/gaming is garbage, /r/games is for discussion.
/r/StardustCrusaders is a fan-art dump, /r/Shitpostcrusaders is a meme juggernaut
The mods of the Game of Thrones subreddit wouldn’t allow people to shit on the show, so /r/freefolk was formed, and that also served as a template for stuff like /r/titanfolk.
Anything that gains critical mass will break down into multiple sub communities. It’s inevitable.
