There are still a select few subreddits where this is true as well. I genuinely miss 10 years ago getting into random shit like double edge razors, home brewing and woodworking and how supportive those communities were to get into. Some communities _do_ exist, but once they get past a certain size it becomes worthless

What was that weightlifting sub that worshiped "Brodin" and "The Church Of (Something? Maybe Iron?)"

I am not a weightlifter, but I'd occasionally visit that sub just because of how welcoming and supportive it was.

Oh man this brings back memories! I can’t remember the name either but they would say stuff like “whey-men” after these “prayers”. I think at some point it kind of devolved into the same jokes over and over as those subs tend to do so I drifted away, but it was fun for a while.
