He wrote inoffensive, humorous, pun-infested, ironic fantasy. He was reddit incarnate

discworld was only relevant to redditors for a brief span of time while internet atheism was cool, and even then they mostly just quotemined the shit out of him for upvotes.
I'd be surprised if even 2% of Reddits current userbase has ever read a discworld novel.

hes witty, charming and pleasantly pure-hearted in a way that surprisingly rare.
im not sure if it makes sense but in a weird way he feels like a fantasy version of Charles Dickens.

Not to mention that a lot of his later shit is thinly veiled social commentary with a strong pro-neoliberal/progressive slant. Unlike Reddit, though, most of his views aren't really fringe progressive and he's subtle enough so that it doesn't feel preachy.

Isn’t his last book about the industrial revolution and the villains are “against progress” just because they’re evil? Complete dementia
