Can we all stop the in-fighting for a minute and realise how awesome the platform we are on is?

We are forming communities on the realized image of the internet that we were told we would have back in the 80s and 90s.

You can make your own home on the web and have your own niche community, not owned by any corporation, while still being connected to the wider internet.

This feels like something out of a sci-fi movie.

Consider this- so many people were just adding reddits to their search queries that it became something that was more standard than queries without a specific website.

Seems pretty obvious to me...

Chill, it's nothing to be serious about :)

I mean, it's also possible that I have just been searching different criteria, but a casual observation is just a casual observation at the end of the day. An anecdote is just an anecdote. I didn't realise that I should have also had to mention all other possible causes lol.

"Obviously", other causes are also possible. Maybe my home network remembers frequent use of the website. Maybe it's the large number of clicks that come from those google results.
