I actually had to update this article within 5 hours of finishing it, because I found two more interesting subreddits.

The subreddits marked with a ★ are my personal favorites. They are more than worth checking out. Especially r/wellthatsucks never disappoints with great content and an amazing mod team that keeps the sub from getting flooded with reposts (like what happened to many other previously good subs).
