For example:
/\/r\/.*/i
This works, but it also returns "/r/", which I do not want. Also, that is not written in C#, it's just an example.
The idea is to retrieve the keyword of a subreddit URL, as in "funny" in "/r/funny".

Thank you. What is that doing? – Aug 12 '20 at 18:43

`(?<=...)` is called a (positive) Lookbehind. Check the linked post. As to `^[\/]+`, it's similar to `.+` except that it matches everything _except_ the `/` character. – 41686d6564 stands w. Palestine Aug 12 '20 at 18:44
