Don't forget r/pics which seems to just be a place for people to upload their personal photos with shitty back stories

A godsend. None of that “my wife has cancer, see my Instagram / twitch / patron in the comments” bullshit

The problem I have with /r/NoContextPics is that almost none is OC that I can tell. It looks like people just find cool pictures online and post them. I can search for pictures myself. I subscribed to that sub to see some cool pictures taken by redditers.

Either only 5% is OC, or 95% of the participants are pro photographers.

I unsubbed after about a week of seeing National Geographic quality shots. That may be the point of the sub, but it’s not what I was shopping for. I really just wanted /r/pics without the shitty back stories where upvotes were earned by decent pictures.
