Every time I discover an interesting new subreddit, the people there are always nice and friendly, and willing to listen.

And every time these subs grow past ~20K subscribers, the comment quality always takes a nosedive.

Just everybody yelling over each other with tired jokes and pointless arguments. And the place becomes just pure misery. But there is nowhere else to go, until now.

I want to see if federation can resolve these issues.
