I recently saw a couple posts on techtakes and holy shit their members are, well, awful. Is this some kinda metajoke or running gag? Their members tend to have positive comment scores despite being massive assholes. That seems out of character for Lemmy which is why I'm confused and wondering if there's some kinda running gag I missed.

It's an echo chamber like any other. Lots of awful in one place amplifying each other

I have just encountered the same problem. It is confusing.

awful.systems sounds a LOT like it's probably involved with SomethingAwful...
