I had to unsub (having been a member for years) because my homepage was full of, "WE ARE HOLDING:diamond: :hands:!!!!I :diamond: LOVE :hands: THIS :diamond: STOCK :rocket::rocket::rocket::rocket::rocket::rocket:" posts with 50k upvotes and a list of gold a mile long.

Same here. I used to love talking shit on WSB. Unfortunately that can’t happen anymore since the culture has changed completely. Long time members know just how awesome that community was, and I think it’ll never be the same.

I understand this sentiment, but please be patient with the subreddit. I believe there are bright days ahead.

This is exactly the problem. Every thread has 1000s of comments and it's very hard to find the good ones since 90%, including many of the most upvoted ones, are garbage. Cannot blame them given the 7M members who joined the sub in 2 weeks. For now I stick to r/stocks.

All I know about /r/stocks is that since last week wsb-style GME junk posts are spamming /r/popular.

But maybe non frontpage posts are better.
