  r/programminglanguages - This is a small community of people who have an interest in programming language design and implementation. r/ocaml - Subreddit for the OCaml language r/programming - The general programming sub. I find that this covers a wide range of topics such that I'm not personally interested in most submissions. However, I occasionally see interesting submissions. r/programmingcirclejerk - A subreddit that makes fun of the hivemind in programming communities. r/k_on - The subreddit for my favorite anime.

  I have a separate programming account but I find most of the programming subs are just so much so-so blog post upvoted with what is really kinda a crappy tutorial / blogspam / resume fodder / and folks are all "gee thanks!". I'm fairly sure you could post something with broken code and it would get a bunch of "great link" posts and votes if it promised to do something neat. No way anyone actually read about them and thought about them, but they get spammed and upvoted endlessly. The thoughtful stuff beyond that is often just veiled insecurity / gate-keeping. I wish the programming related subs were a bit more curated / moderated, particularly web development related, but that's not the reddit way in general. I like college football so r/cfb is nice. I'm on a bit of a down cycle on reddit as may of my long time subs are now large enough that I don't want to read them and they're dominated by hot takes and garbage.

  r/cscareerquestions is pretty good, though sometimes a bit too salary and BigN-focused (like Blind). All the sports-related ones, including r/nba and r/nfl, are top-notch.

  r/emacs: Current maintainer and many famous package developers hang around there. Great and friendly place to ask. r/privacytoolsio: Excellent tips on privacy e.g., F-Droid. PS: I hate the new Reddit redesign. The old Reddit design was really good. I don't get the change.

    Apparently so does someone at reddit, as there is a simple way around the new interface (other than changing settings when logged in): old.reddit.com So, using one of your subreddits, try: https://old.reddit.com/r/privacytoolsIO/ https://old.reddit.com/r/privacytoolsIO/

      I know, I even have a rewrite rule in Firefox to change links as I usually browse in anonymous self-contained tabs. But I'd prefer the old simple one was the default.
