Sorry commenting again because I wanna say I so agree about megathreads. I thought it's just me being picky, and maybe I should just be glad for the organization. But really, I didn't like them all so much because sometimes it slowed a topic or stifled the conversation about a topic. And it really seem to make the topic be more hidden. (I understood sometimes to have one big thread organizing links for example, but for some things it seemed to hide a subject from wider view, and even tho searching posts wasn't so good on Reddit, trying to search through the megathread seemed worse..)
