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 don’t think I have seen anyone use that here.
Same, and I don’t like it, idk why exactly but I think because too many other things already get referred to as such.
I’ve been using “muni / munis” and only once has it caused any confusion.
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.
OP is far older than reddit. Older than 4chan even. It’s not site specific.
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.
Where does comms = subs? Never heard it used in that context
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.
Just* 😛

That depends on your instance. Kbin gives that grace period, or at least when viewing from Kbin. It should be easy enough to implement, if the instance owner is willing.
Edit: this is an edit to demonstrate.
Except with federation, there’s no guarantee the edit promulgates as fast as the original.
Maybe they could delay the federation in the first place for a couple mins?
Or maybe we could just proofread our shit.
Probably not though; I myself am terrible about that.
