    You still get this effect if you are active on specific communities, especially smaller ones.

      Can’t say I ever got that from any subreddit, except in the negative way: trolls and overzealous moderators.

        Definitely happened in my bump group. But it was maybe 50 active users all going through the same intense thing.

        As a redditor for over 13 years, the smaller communities were one of my favorite parts of the site.
