>>3837668>Self-depreciating humor tends to stem from either genuine feelings of inferiority or from genuine insecurity.There is another form of self depreciating humour that stems from the mocking of stereotypes associated with something whether or not they apply to you --or even if they're not true in general-- e.g : Ricardo and Mortimer fanbase embracing the "XD SO SMART XD" stereotype and then mocking it by acting accordingly.
>Ironic enjoyment is enjoying something either from how unenjoyable it is looping back around and making it enjoyable (think "so stupid it's funny")I'd argue that this is genuine enjoyment garnered from observing a hillarious trainwreck or an overplayed trope taken to (or beyond) its logical extremes.
>from enjoying that other people do not enjoy something (related but not always overlapping with contrarianism)That's contrarianism and the need to stand out, it has nothing to do with the concept of enjoyment. To describe it as "enjoyment" would imply they genuinely like it, and should one genuinely like a thing then it doesn't matter what the public opinion is (don't quote me on this, I'm not telling you to go out there and break the law)
>and from enjoying the camaraderie of people who also see how unenjoyable something is, thus making it a focal point of enjoyment vicariously.Camaraderie in general is enough of a reason to enjoy a thing, regardless of whether or not the thing itself is enjoyable without the surrounding group of individuals.

Would you be implying that it's gotten bad because it has expanded and gotten (more) popular?
