I gave up on reddit years ago after being on reddit for 11+ years. It’s garbage. The Internet has been compromised.
Yeah I thought it was hilarious how quickly posts can be moved around once the narrative is set. My local sub had a picture posted with "SAVE THE KIDS" on a sign over the freeway. It reached the front page of that sub with very few comments. Then a user chimed in saying it was posted by the antisemite Qtards and immediately got buried back down to 0 visible votes and eventually disappeared. Nobody in that thread including me chimed in with any WWG1WGA type shit at all. Just a general message of saving the kids that anybody can truly get behind. Nope. Gone. That's when I knew all hope was lost for that platform even outside of the heavily moderated subs that are used to coordinate narratives for normies to eat up.
I use it for smaller subs. But the front page is just retarded. And anything to do with politics is an insane dumpster fire.
I had to abandon it when I noticed small subs getting comprised after that Chinese investment firm bought a stake in it.
A sub that would get maybe a dozen comments per post, would get bombarded any time something negative was said about china.
That's how learned a lot about bots.
I too used smaller subs but the entire covid/clot thing changed the situation because they started to censor every single place with algorithm.
I started get warning/temp bans for talking shit about LGBT pedophiles in a small sub (which had NEVER happened before), that's when I realized that place crossed the line.
The only time I go on it is when I get a Google hit for a technical solution that happens to be on reddit.
My account is from 2011. What bothers me the most is all the users adopting the same language, expressions, and deferential tone. It feels like you're talking to only one person, and they have no convictions to stand on their own. Not to mention "source????" when you say anything outside the extremely narrow range of approved topics.
And once you provide a source, all you get back is a list of things wrong, or not verifiable with that source.
They're all professional epistemologists, in their heads. And mental health professionals who question your cognition.
