I loved Reddit for what it is, but nothing made me back out of a post faster than seeing the top 3 parent threads as a regurgitation of the same inside jokes, pun-chains, and so on.

    If the Lemmies end up like 2023 reddit, then maybe what you’re looking for is tildes.net which seems to be more like r/AskHistorians meets pre-September Usenet.

        I’d rather them do that than the taking up arms to demand Lemmy become Reddit I’ve been seeing all over the place.

        True; but the open sites I agree with, currently lack the moderation-style and content of places like r/AskHistorians and Tildes. Usenet, Slashdot, Reddit, Tildes, a future Lemmy?
