i can't stand megathreads -- no one reads these! no one wants their posts banished there!

Gatekeeping communities. A lot of the niche communities basically would push you away if you don't have the latest or greatest, or if you had a slightly differing opinion than the rest of that community
No, it's just you who's too sensitive. Now gtfo!

Alternatively, one of my favorite things about Reddit was the circlejerk communities which were half tongue-in-cheek about gatekeeping certain things.
/r/guitar was known for being weird about their guitars, to the point you'd think they wanted to fuck them. /r/guitarCirclejerk was great because they'd ham it up and take it even further. /r/VinylCirclejerk was the same, they'd just post pictures of their feet with a record way off in the distance and say "how's my collection?"
It's semi-gatekeeping, but it provides, in my opinion, a funny counter to some of the more serious subs, or just makes fun of people who post dumb things.
Pet ownership communities were the worst offenders
