    That’s one of those little things that I really will miss about reddit. Same deal with /r/trees and /r/marijuanaenthusiasts. Guess which one was for the arborists.

    Those guys were always super cool about it on both sides though, lol. People would post questions about actual trees on /r/trees and a horde of friendly stoners would point them towards the other sub. You’d think you were just being fucked with until you actually went there, and lo, dendrology.

      Backing that up from the opposite side of the fence. Questions about actual marijuana would sometimes get joke responses, but they were always light-hearted and they would always have one or several users explain and link them the correct sub. Gone are the days of posting about obtaining “contraband” that turned out to be magnolia seeds, I guess. There’s no reason to carry that joke here, as frankly I think it would harm discoverability too much.
