    • no r/GetMotivated posts on the front page
    • no “Top livestream” in the feed
    • fewer astroturfers
    • less content (I can actually keep up and then go do something else :)
    • no ads
    • even if I could hide all that, most of the above is motivated by reddit being a corporation and how their profit-seeking functions… and that’s why the badness seeps much deeper than a few examples can illustrate

      omg, I thought I was the only one who hated that sub. Oh yes, I’m sure a short quote on an overly designed background is going to solve every problem ever. And who the hell says motivation is the problem in the first place? /rant
