About

Embolden the E refers to a subreddit/trend started in July 2016, wherein one emboldens a random 'e' in their comments, lik*e* so.

Origin

In July 2016, Redditor AntoneFinance created the subreddit after accepting a bet to create a "meme, fad, or internet trend with significant Reddit-wide recognition" within two years.

Spread

The subreddit has been gaining subscriptions and currently has 6,000 subscribers. Mentions of the subreddit frequently appear in threads of other subreddits such as AskReddit. It has also spawned a competitive subreddit, Avoid5, that focuses on writing comments without using the letter 'e'. Occasionally it has been faced with criticism, with some calling it a forced meme.
