Over 10 years ago, a user stumbled into /r/McGill and wrote the first post.
“Is this working yet?” they wrote on Feb. 6, 2010.
“Most of us hang out in /r/Montreal,” /u/iorgfeflkd replied. Ten years later, more than 4,500 users have made over 26,000 posts about topics ranging from which classes have lecture recordings to how to deal with stalkers on campus. To get an idea of how McGill’s students—and sometimes, staff—interact with Reddit, The McGill Tribune decided to download and analyse every single text post since 2010.
