Camus' argument against suicide isn't particularly strong. His answer to nihilism came from a perspective only tenable for those who have already come out the other end of the existential crisis themselves and either knowingly or unknowingly rejected nihilism.
It's like saying "The answer to being afraid of dying of cancer is to survive your cancer treatment :^):
That only really benefits the individual falling into nihilism by affirming that the situation is in fact survivable, but doesn't give them much in the way of motivation from there.

Camus contributed nothing Nietzsche didn't already say. He's a first rate Dick-Rider that is only redeemed by his storytelling skills.

Nietzsche predicted that man would develop their own systems of meaning in the post-nihilistic world, but didn't get around to strongly defining what those systems of meaning could be. Camus at least attempts an answer.
Camus would be nowhere without Nietzsche but really that's true of the whole of Existentialist thought.

Because Nietzsche knew he was still to hopelessly conditioned: he knew his limitations. Camus had reddit self-awareness in this regard.

Agree to a point, but Camus does the very French thing of spending pages to identify a problem while offering no solutions. Case in point, his rant on bad faith (mauvais foi) in Nausea. It's a big deal to his characters and is a huge problem with the existential life but do they do anything about it? Nope.

Camus is very much more interested in transferring the impression of an idea or state of being to his audience than he is in outlining the exact form of that idea/state, true. But then Camus had a real bone to pick with the Germanic nihilistic tradition of great thinkers sitting at their desks getting rich and famous while arguing that people should kill themselves (or shouldn't NOT kill themselves)

Right, because Nietzsche made so much money off writing. Stirner was a businessman and made little to no money off writing.

For the record, I wasn't saying Nietzsche was a nihilist, I was merely pointing out that since this guy >>11389712 was categorizing him as such and making claims, even if I granted his intial nihilist premise he was still wrong.

Camus wasn't writing in direct response to Nietzsche, insofar as he was trying to divorce his existentialist thought from other continental nihilists. Nietzsche did unquestionably set the stage for that discussion, though.
