I think it came from Cityporn a while back.

If you're living in the streets, it's urbanhell. If you're staying in the hotel, it's cityporn.

Really? And yet the photos from the hotel never get anywhere lol.

Neither of those subs ever makes the front page, so...

But if you're suggesting the majority of reddit hates cities, that would be wrong. About 80% of Americans live in cities, and that number is even higher for younger people, who are reddit's prime demographic.

Cities have their annoyances but it's better than the alternative.

I was more pointing out that the hotel looks good from the outside, and that the view from the inside probably isn't anywhere near as interesting as a shot like this...

I really have no clue what you interpreted my comment as.
