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.

    I wonder if this will come down to client apps (though “native” instance-level integration would be nice).

    Mlem currently has keyword filters but it would be nice to filter comments out that equal a filter.

    For example, I can’t stand comments that just say “this” so in theory I would set a filter for any comment that’s just equal to “this” right? But then I’d be filtering out quite a lot of “valid” comments.

      But you could filter out comments containing only “this” or variations with exclamations points and such
