Reddit is less creative than it is distributive. Terrible place for original content, but a reliable location to find reposts of trending material produced elsewhere.
If you’re looking for a real “10,000 monkeys on typewriters” situation, you’d be better off trolling through Tumblr or DeviantArt or 4chan.
It was more of an attempt at a joke. But the comments on reddit are rather close to the infinite monkey situation. While you are absolutely right that 4chan might be even closer. But 4chan is too hardcore for me, so I kind of forgot about it.

Damn, I wish they were that creative. I feel like there’s maybe 30 different predefined Reddit Comments that just get randomly spat out by a generator ever few minutes.

Fair. But nothing recreates the experience of a dozen chimps throwing shit at one another like 4chan.
Reddit is basically prove that this theory is bullshit anyway.
There aren’t infinite monkeys on reddit. There is Shaekspeare on reddit. Lemmy isn’t any better.
Reddit comes pretty close to infinite monkeys with infinite time. Lemmy has just much fewer monkeys.
