Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

We have the best people. All the geniuses say were the best. They have the worst people. It’s not even a match.
Slightly different here, when Reddit put the writing on the wall, The people with the lowest tolerance for bullshit left. The signal to noise ratio over there went way up. As the quality dropped off, we saw more waves of people coming this way.
Basically, the people that are left over there are kind of willingly swimming in filth. It's a filtering event really. Even including the bots, tankies, whatever this is, it's far less toxic over here on a thread to thread community to community basis.
Oh, I agree wholeheartedly, I just saw an opportunity for an en passant joke and couldn’t pass it.
Yes, 2015 was a wild year.
