I love that comment sections here are like, y’know, discussions and stuff. Not just the same jokes and parroted phrases over and over and over.

Oh you mean those hundreds of nested one word comments that add nothing to the subject? Fuck those. So thankful for “tap comment to collapse” in reddit clients.
We still have inline images in comments though which are arguably just as bad, if not worse. I can’t be the only one that noticed how rapidly /r/unexpected comment sections went to absolute shit when gif comments became a thing in the Reddit mobile app.
I’ve already seen numerous cases of people using the place like discord and dropping gifs in reply to a comment, and getting upvoted because “lol moving pictures”.
They contribute nothing, they’re distracting, take up a lot of space in the comment chain if you like compact mode, often spammed by users that have nothing intelligent to add but feel the need for attention anyway.
I’m patiently waiting for the setting to disable it.
