I'm just sick of the droves of low effort jokes on reddit. If you don't have any content to add, then shut the fuck up.
Maybe a serious tag would help with that. There's honestly better communities for that like Tildes and HackerNews. HN is still lightly tolerant of a little nonsense but Tildes is all-business. Does that sound more appealing to you in that regard? You might thrive there better than here but you decompensate by the lack of quantity of new content. Like, there's always some new stuff but the volume is far less. A lot of people feel its too dead
It's truly a sad day in this series of tubes when being serious is the exception rather than the rule.
