Overzealous mods.
Endless OF spam.
Corporate shills.
Permanent bans. Except for egregious cases, ALL bans should be for a certain number of hours to cool the situation down, and then let it go.
Powermods and powermods bullying/stalking you just because you said something they personally didn't like. And no, I'm not talking about racism or politics. This happened over choosing healthy dieting strategies and being active in certain dieting subreddits. Yep.
People farming karma on subs like /r/aww.
Like not even reposters. I’m instead talking about the people who camp that sub and ruin threads by criticizing diet, etc.
If you post a photo of a dog that’s even slightly overweight, God have mercy on your cursed soul.

people who are new to the site commenting and talking about things that were relevant on it 10 years ago, like "narwhals baconing" or whatever that was all about
Not restricted to just Reddit. But the increased usage recently of "ya'll"
I'm getting real sick of seeing comments made by someone who clearly didn't read or understand a post/comment. It's hard to tell if it's genuine stupidy and a lack of reading comprehension or a purposeful troll. Either way, it's annoying and I hope to at least see a lot less of it on Lemmy, if not gone altogether.
Well I saw there's already a "The Donald" type group so that's just fuckin' lovely.
