I love getting the same vibe from a pic of someone holding a snail shell as you get seeing a post on r/whatisthisthing of someone showing off a WWII bomb they dug up in their garden.
The unexploded ordnance of the tide pool.

Hi, it's me. Your idiot friend from the internet who had no idea that the snail that made that big shell could have killed me if it was home. You're not really supposed to pick them up to admire them. 🌠 #TheMoreYouKnow
Well, the tide never receded quite enough for the land bridge to the monkey Island to form, but look at all these beautiful seashells

I found a small aluminum one of those things in a box of stuff I got at an auction. I went on reddit (r/whatisthisthing) to ask what it was used for, and the fuckers banned me.

decided a decade ago that it wasn’t worth maintaining an account: I thought it wasn’t as worthless as Facebook (which is only saved imo by Facebook marketplace — ymmv!) but it was close enough to be disregarded, almost entirely

Oh sure every so often you get r/whatisthisthing to get a quick answer. But like, r/rpg? Nah. There are no creatives there. No developers.
Reddit's "macro" communities were always kinda that way though. No one goes to r/music for THEIR music, just GENERAL music news.

I’ve probably just seen too many Reddit whatisthisthing posts to only see something that is—uh—I guess not entirely unconnected to toddlers.

Seriously, do not underestimate how many social experiments I would run with unlimited cash.
Make physical objects that don't resemble anything common. Leave them out in public to be found by normal people. Observe! They'll probably post in r/WhatIsThisThing but it will be FUTILE, HAHAHA
