Yeah but breakaway communities existed then. Underscore, rename, different order… all this shit was there. You can have the same name now which is cool, but you always could have something close. It’s the community and users people care about and starting a new one is a pain in the ass

There's a big advantage to having the sub with the most obvious name. If you want to talk about Canada you're going to go to /r/canada first, not /r/onguardforthee.
