Tried to rant on Reddit. It didn't go well. I'll never cheat again!

Where downvoting is a sport.

This relationship……over

To be fair, Sometimes rants don't go well here either. That's just part of life as a human though

If the internet was a building, Reddit would be the dumpster behind it.

@wackOverflow

Reddit is quite big though.

It's like a giant wasteland full of garbage, with a tiny percentage of treasure.

The large development subs for example are quite trash, but for a specific language, technology or stack there might be a nice small community.

In general it's great for very specific goals: Like when you're wondering which finishing oil to use on your walnut wooden table, checking optimized smelting setups for the Factorio seablock modpack, or trying to learn how to speedsolve a skewb.

Reddit is fine for facts and giggles. But they have no rant culture there. They mostly don't even swear!

@Oktokolo Fucking retards, I hope they choke on their overpriced keycaps and their bowels start to prolapse from their goddamn anuses when defecate, fuck those uncultured dimwitted swines.

Ahhhh that feels better.

@bittersweet

So do you prefer the blue or or the brown Cherry switches?

@Oktokolo

Green > Clear > Brown.

Most of my keyboards use MX Brown though, because they're no-noise & readily available.

I have MX Green in a machined brass-and-walnut Ergodox casing, and MX Clear in a gaming keyboard.

Now that escalated quickly...

I use a Logitech Deluxe 250 i bought in 2010 for less than five bucks. Since some years, the laser-engravings starts to fade on the most-used keys. But it still works fine and i like how the rubber dome dampens both, the noise and impact of my fat fingers hitting the keys.

@Oktokolo

My Ergodox keyboard... €850 in materials.

And I always bitch at Apple fanboys for spending money on overpriced accessoires.

Being a hypocrite feels pretty good 🤷

@bittersweet

Well, you definitely check both marks here: Hypocrite and hipster. But if you are really into the click, i doubt you actually had any choice...
