If we want the Fediverse to be sustainable and to emerge as the ethical alternative to Big Tech's social platforms we need to actively help it out. From the bottom up.
Reddit mods suck, reddit karma system sucks for new users so we have that over them (they can barely comment and cant post), reddit censors all the time at least once most ppl have been temp banned or had a comment/post removed that they thought wasn’t controversial. The algorithim is forcing controversy, cant avoid negative subreddits, your subscribed feed will show you stuff you arent subscribed to from communities that you downvote.
Reddit just has the ppl that have been there forever and are addicted to answering questions for dopamine hits. Whats annoying is reddit tends to have ppl that are at the intermediate level of each niche so the advice/info they give gets popular and parroted while it may not be the best.
Major issue with reddit is shills and bots, you cant trust reccs on their anymore, gotta look through profile history, might be slightly better here due to them not targetting us.
