This subreddit was created as an alternative to similar communities, focusing solely on the intense and chaotic nature of true public freakouts. We avoid political content, uplifting or feel-good videos, and explicit depictions of death. Our goal is to provide a space where you can unwind and be entertained after a long day.
846.7K members. The best post we have captured here reached 90.9K upvotes, which works out to 107 per 1,000 members.

We deliberately do not publish an average score: our sample is weighted toward a community's best posts, so an average would be flattering and wrong. Peak per 1,000 members is computed the same way for every community listed. See how we measure.
