I remember several years ago r/Casual Conversation was brimming with interesting and candid discussion. As it gained more and more traction I saw it go through the same evolution that killed r/IAmA and r/askreddit. More popularity means more traffic, more traffic means more posts, more posts means stricter moderating, stricter moderating means less "casual" posts. Before long it was just another upvote machine, and that's when I dipped out.

So having said that, how is your morning going? Did you do anything cool this weekend?
