What Does This Mean?
[ FORUM CULTURE ][ ATTENTION ECONOMY ]
A single large, consolidated discussion thread created specifically to gather all conversation about one major event or topic in one place, rather than letting it splinter across dozens of separate posts.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
"All the discussion about the announcement got merged into one megathread."
LORE & ORIGIN
Became standard Reddit and forum practice by the 2010s as communities needed a way to manage sudden surges of posts about the same breaking event without flooding the rest of the community's content.
