A single link to another subreddit is often given in a comment when the subject under discussion would fit there too. Yay! A new sub to play in! But you will also find links posted to subreddits that don’t exist; i.e. Fake Subreddits generated by someone putting the prefix r/ before a random word or phrase for comic effect r/likethis_forexample. Welcome to the meta world of fake subreddits: please hold onto your hat.
r/SubsIFellFor is a sub dedicated to documenting the times you fell for a fake sub that seemed real in comments but wasn’t.
r/subsiwishexisted is a sub dedicated to documenting the times you were disappointed at the times you fell for a fake sub that seemed real in comments but wasn’t.
r/subsithoughtifellfor is a sub dedicated to documenting the times you thought you might be falling for a fake sub that seemed real in comments which is indeed real and does actually exist.
r/subsyoufellfor is a sub dedicated to bamboozling you into falling for a fake sub that seems real in comments which is indeed real and does actually exist but with no content or purpose other than the bamboozle you were meant to fall for by clicking the sub. Reddit loves being meta. Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't after you.
r/wowthissubexists is a sub dedicated to documenting the times you thought a sub couldn’t possibly exist for something but it does. There really is a subreddit for everything.
r/twentycharacterlimit is a sub dedicated to documenting the *Traditional Reddit Reply*™ to someone posting an obviously fake sub name that's too long to be a subreddit.
r/21CharactersAndNoMore, and r/21CharacterLimitation are subs dedicated to documenting other examples of subreddit limitations!
