By "jab" do you mean derogatory remark? Does that not depend on the poster's perception of Reddit? If one considers them equal but different, then the remark is merely one of contrast.
> each subreddit has its own norms
Granted...
> There are no "community norms" for reddit
From what I've observed, there most definitely are. Their forms of humor are often upvoted across subreddits (e.g., inside jokes, meme's, animated gif's in lieu of discourse).
This is how I interpret the reddit "jab" comparison: go there for funny, come here for info; neither is better than the other.
If you personally feel HN is superior to reddit, than I can see why you'd consider it a jab.
