My mental health has gotten much better. Even only browsing the lefty subs wasn’t helping since redditors think every thread is a debate forum.
delete it and do not look back
redditors think every thread is a debate forum.
I think this is the core why reddit is fucking toxic. On here we can just have convos for the hell of it. Every single thing on reddit seems to be contentious. On reddit you will get downvoted voor the most uncontroversial small ass comment ‘I like red shoes’ or something could get you piled on. I’m not even exaggerating.
I posted something innocuous in a game sub like “lol why are you playing with Japanese voice acting” and I got like 100+ downvotes plus a couple of guys saying I was xenophobic. You’re definitely not exaggerating, there is something fundamentally broken with the people on reddit
Reddit is good as long as you don’t touch anything political with a 10 foot pole
great platform for vibeo gemz and porn
Yeah, I got so much happier when I just downloaded an epub reader on my phone and forced myself to read books whenever I wanted to spend a long time on my phone reading shit.
Literally all I use reddit for now is videogame subs. Even then there’s some hot takes on some certain videogame subreddits, haha.
I love you chapos and prefer it here, but there’s still certain subreddits you just don’t have an equivalent for yet and frankly may not ever given the demographics.
Mainly: parenting. I don’t think there’s many single dads with Kindergartners here, and even if there were while I fully intend to radicalize my kid and probably couldn’t avoid warping him even if I wanted to…I do still at least want to make sure I can reduce alienation from his peers which means I need to follow what “normies” are up to.
Eh, I only use it for porn nowadays. Where else am I gonna find r34 Lenin?
My god yes. My mental health has improved significantly since I deleted that wretched app. There’s this certain type of nerdy, pedantic, debate-club tone that I’ve only heard people use on Reddit and it literally makes me want to commit violence. Burn that place to the ground, and don’t look back lest you turn into a pillar of salt.
