Like, obviously around here you don’t subscribe to a subreddit, were not on reddit.

What about referring to the Original Poster as OP?

What about etiquette like marking edited posts and comments with “Edit: added words or explanations of edits made”?

    Comms = subs, though it’ll take a while to catch on I guess.

    OP is OP. Though even in Reddit it was somewhat interchangeable between the person who created the post, and the person who posted the top comment of whatever discussion is ongoing.

    Edit etiquette should stay. Ninja edits are rude, unless you’re fixing typos. Even edits made instantly after a post/comment can sometimes show up much later than the original post due to federation latency.

        I didn’t mean to imply it was. I’m just replying in the context of OP’s post

        This is interesting. I’ve only spent time on reddit and then here, so I didn’t know it was a well known thing on other sites

          Yeah I’ve been using it since long before Reddit existed. Yes, I’m old.

        Same, and I don’t like it, idk why exactly but I think because too many other things already get referred to as such.

          That probably would have taken a second for me without context. I don’t know if there is a good short for community. Or if one is even needed, really.

        comms = communities

        but since subs is short for subreddits, they’re kinda the same if you get what I’m saying here

      I do wish we had that three minute window reddit had where you cold fix typos or something without it appearing as edited. Happens to me so often but I usually jsut fix them.
