web What's your opinion on Reddit?

[Envy 5,748]

Some communities are better than others. Some you just really can't give any opinions, like the gaming communities. There are so many people there ready to downvote you. =/ Like the other day I responded to someone asking for advice for dungeons in FFXIV and I suggested (among other things) that they might want to watch dungeon guides. I got downvoted. I responded to someone who responded to me basically saying "that's the wrong way to play, you'll spoil everything!" IIRC and said "well I had dungeon anxiety. Not everyone has to play this way, it's just a suggestion." Got downvoted for that. LOL.

It's no surprise to me that gaming communities can't handle opinions, though. They never have been able to. I just think it's so toxic. I don't downvote people I disagree with, I only downvote people who are rude, bigoted, etc. But some people just downvote merely because they disagree. =/

Oddly enough the political ones have been the least down voting. but I avoid anything where right wing people would want to post.

Eh, it’s good. I wouldn’t go on it all that often.

Reddit is only good for a few entertaining subreddits and troubleshooting whatever tech problems I might be having. It's like going to a zoo, mostly.

That the only plane of existence for many communities. I use it for gamedev subs. But many people there are wild angry animals, I got 200+ downvotes once because I said "I've never used version control, don't see a reason for me" in a gamedev sub

 I've been on Reddit a few times and I don't understand what the big deal is. I think its post layout is awful and difficult to read.

I feel as if it's another toxic website. It's something I have never ever used and don't plan to.

It's not much better than Twitter in my opinion. Another toxic site that I will never make an account on.

Went back for r/place's revival. That was fun, the r/place part and the collaborations and whatnot(poor Canada lol). What wasn't was the death threats and being called both a clopper and a brony hater, a nazi and a dumb American, all from that event. I barely commented on anything, so apparently I must have replaced the wrong pixels at the wrong time. So basically why I joined and why I left all within a week, again, as I guess I joined right before or after the first place event.

I liked it on reddit since I only joined friendly communities.

Well I just made an account while back-better than being on Twitter that's for sure. I can choose to join communities  that is less toxic and post whatever without dumb kids trying to be edgy or smart.
