People constantly asking the same questions, resulting in the same answers.

You likely mean recurring ones, but the single event-driven ones make more sense? The recurring ones simply imho reflect a lack a technological capability to filter posts in as fine-tuned a manner as people seem to desire.

Power mods... Except they are already here and banning opinions they don't like. Good thing it's super easy to make a new account on here.

Gif’s that end too soon for “comedic value”but too often just end up feeling suuuper unnecessary and contrived.

Just stop that trend already, please. It’s 2023, not 2016.

Not being allowed to put your own answer in the text box of an Ask post you made so you’re forced to awkwardly answer your own question in the comments.

people who are new to the site commenting and talking about things that were relevant on it 10 years ago, like "narwhals baconing" or whatever that was all about

Crappy mods and the ignorant, egotistical attitude that plagued reddit for years, making it the laughingstock of the internet.
