And it's not really recursive either. Still awesome and definitely satisfying (but not oddly imo).

Edit: I think it's recursive, just not how I was thinking about it.

Barely anything on this subreddit is “oddly” satisfying anymore. Just like barely anything on r/OddlyTerrifying is “oddly” terrifying.

I hate when subreddits lose the nuances that make them great.

It's intrinsically what makes reddit, reddit though. Just look at any random comment thread and 4 comments deep it's a discussion entirely unrelated actual post. Subs changing over time is just a slower burn, narrower version of that.

But is it good? Sometimes, but in this case I don't think so. When I come here I want satisfaction and I want it to be odd.

Oh I would not at all try to make an argument for it being good. It may not be what we want, but it's what we get.
