megathread

Consolidated comment destination

A megathread is a designated discussion thread on Reddit or similar forums that consolidates conversation about a major topic—breaking news, live events, recurring questions—into one place rather than letting dozens of separate posts clutter the feed: Check the megathread for election updates.

Moderators typically create and pin megathreads to manage high-volume discussion.
