I don't think we really needed yet another Reddit thread on here, but guess we're due for one about once a year or so...
Don't like their format, and don't have the time or patience to wade through their bazillion sub groups and everything, nor deal with the different moderation ideas that each one has. I'll read through some if they show up in Google results, and sometimes get worthwhile info sometimes not. I don't think they're necessarily better or worse than most places, ok well they're definitely better than garbage like 4Chan.
There's definitely awful shitheads on Reddit (and that continued past when they tried to purge some like the pedophiles posting their underage fetish shit - although those people seem to be using YouTube these days), but there's plenty that aren't.
Its a mix of everybody for better and worse.
I don't think I ever made a Reddit account. Made one for Imgur, and used to look through pics on there and comment but its full of fucking idiots (there was one where someone showed a pic of a car design studio from like the 50s, with clay bucks, and the people there thought it was a production line and then ranted about how much better cars used to be made...and just a bunch of other random stupid shit).
