r/196 is a shitposting subreddit whose gimmick was the previously only rule that once someone visits the subreddit, they must post. They are Best known for being a Commiepedotroon echo chamber, posting unfunny coal, being full of trannies, and exposing minors to +18 material while mocking attempts to outrule it.[1]
They are also known for making brimstone Incomprehensible wojacks, namedropping the sharty and snitching on raids[2].
History
r/196 started as a "spiritual successor" to r/195, another shitposting subreddit that nuked itself after 420 weeks of being up, the creator citing that he "didnt want to be a part of promoting hate, violence, homophobia, racism, and mutilation videos."[3]
It is unknown when the trannery started, but some experts[it just is, ok?] theorize that the lack of rules and judgement did it, although it could be some other reason that turned it into the cesspool that it is today.
They played a big part in viralizing "Say the line, [blank]jak!", by reposting variations of the meme.
API protest shutdown
The subreddit shutdown during the July 1st protests, leaving many pedoshitters to either move to the splinters, an off-site spinoff, or Tumblr, a similar echo chamber, however, it doesnt allow showing nsfw to minors so it wasnt the first option many had.
After the failed API protests that redditors promptly sweeped under the rug, 196 reopened to positive reactions among splinter subs since they see 196 as a containment subreddit.[4]
Relations with the sharty
During the shutdown, most users flocked to the spinoffs, the sharty tried to raid[5] one of these spinoffs due to moderation presumably being worse.
However, the entire subreddit and jannies went into lockdown 2 seconds after the raid had started, with numerous posts seething about the situation and jannies going feral, assuming that they're getting raided by whatever boogieman except the sharty.
Because of the huge seethe this event caused despite almost minimal effort, it was considered a Sharty win.
Some people believe that 196 was behind certain ddos'es and 'p spam after the raids[6], this is however a complete coincidence since redditors are always on the moral high ground and would never stoop down to such levels.[it just is, ok?]
