Thank god I'm not the only one.

Do you have any data or insider information to validate that? Because I would argue that I see significantly more depression memes on Reddit than what my friends have ever shown me on TikTok.

I’ve always thought there was around 500,000 words in the English language. I didn’t check but they don’t look like they add up.

While you argue one syllable words, here I am seeing a censored dick.

True. Some of it reaches the front page. But only some. On tik tok it's overepresented af.

Shouldn't it be 35 then? 26, plus A and I, then the 7 numerals?

Shrimp sounds less interesting

would be helpful to have a key labeling the basins

This is pretty y'all but I'm too dumb to appreciate anything else from this chart.

They get pushed to signed out users same as any other sub with enough traffic. I fail to see how that's different than algorithmic selection from a new user perspective.

I'm pretty sure these are numerals. It makes sense since both add up to 36.

I would like to see the German words plotted out.

Yup. However reddit don't have an algo actively pushing it..

Edit: caught your edit (second paragraph for posterity) and those are specific subs. Not sitewide.

No. I'm pretty sure the ghost words are numerals. I should have wrote "characters" rather than "letters."

So exactly what reddit does? Glorify depression and bipolar disorder and suicide jokes because it makes good memes?

You never been to /r/me_irl or /r/dankmemes before? They're quite large/popular.

Seems like there is only a and I, unless you count O. O Canada

Yés. I hópe this clärifies

How are there more 1 letter words than letters in the alphabet?

No, but you're forgetting that each letter is, itself a noun referring to that letter. Plus a few that are other words with their own dictionary entries.

TikTok is no worse than reddit or Facebook or video games or MSN Messenger or IRC or BBS or television or radio or books or whatever other shit the adults of the generation claimed was "poisoning the youth".

You aren't enlightened. You're just old.

This is the exact same moral panic we've been seeing for centuries, and pretending TikTok is truly the most serious it's ever been is extreme hypocrisy.

I assume they're counting A as both the noun representing the letter and the indefinite article. Same idea with I, X, and 3 other letters.

Incomprehensibility is a 19 letter word with 8 syllables, FWIW.

Perhaps it's not in the top 50,000... but that seems incomprehensible to me ;-).

This. The tik tok algo, whether it's by design or just algo gone amok, is actively promoting content glorifiyng mental illness as something hip that people should get involved with. It's kinda like the emo trend of the 2000s but worse. No video game, thriller/horror movie or what have you will tell you it's hip to have and/or identify with mental illness..

That's 26.. "I" and "a" (not the letter) are 2 more. 28.. what are some others?

I'd never heard of initialisms. Thank you, kind pedant!
