What's some common knowledge that you just found out recently?
I knew about this on some level before, but the recent posts have given me a better understanding on how in some countries people need expensive third party software to pay their taxes.

I hope the death of reddit gives rise to a more decentralised internet.
Death? Don't get ahead of yourself. I doubt reddit is going anywhere, it just helped this place catch some wind.
