I couldn't see anyone else mentioning it so I will. Ads. My mind is at peace without them
Ads
Shadowbanning.
The state of certain subreddits was abysmal. Damnthatsinteresting, mildlyinteresting and all the others were just the same thing reposted and crossposted.

I love megathreads for when I have to sleep through an event and I want a detailed recap
Snarkiness, snobbery, walking on eggshells, opinion downvotes and in general the unbearable attitude of most redditors.
snark is a very useful tool when dealing with frauds and delusional assholes

Power mods, shadow banning, corrupt admins
ads, just that
And comment posting bots. Since there's no karma there should be no market value for accounts right? Am I missing something or does that kind of solve the problem? We could still see trolls using Ai to comment randomly
I don't care about ads on Reddit. They aren't intrusive, although I don't like fake "organic content". I think the worst thing is seeing the same thing over and over again in the same sub, being reposted by bots. It's OK if it's from time to time, but they don't even try to change the title.
RPAN or something like that. I don't know why I would go to Reddit for livestreams. I certainly wouldn't come to Lemmy for it, either.
“What the title says…” I hate when people start the body of their post referring to the title of the post as if isn’t self-explanatory, that the two are related.
I happen to love megathreads. When a major breaking news happens I want to discuss it with the community, not read a dozen smaller threads repeating the same.
Crappy UI Design

First comment being, from a automateded bot.
Former mod here: The reason so many subs employed automod to leave a message on every post is because most users wouldn't read anything. They wouldn't read the rules, or recent announcements - the only way to ensure that they even saw information you wanted them to see was to literally have a bot reply to every post shoving it in their face. It is annoying, extremely, but it was really one of the only ways.
The absolutely childish gaming default posts of "hidden gems" that aren't hidden, "ain't much but it's mine" and stale ass memes. Stuff like that makes my eyes roll. Not just the default gaming sub but it started to creep into most places.
I can hope it won’t but I know it’s gonna happen anyway - the chronically online mentality that was everywhere on Reddit.
On reddit it always seemed like a lot of people (or at least the most vocal ones) never actually go outside and have this very idealized and unrealistic view on the world.
