People usually bring up the hate subreddits when discussing why reddit sucks but most hate subs except r/theredpill and r/tumblrinaction are actually pretty small. The problem is the users of all the popular 8-million-subscriber subreddits like r/askreddit, r/worldnews or r/gaming are barely a step down from the hate sub users and will pretty much upvote the hell out of any pedophile, MRA, or nationalist posts they can find.

So no there's no "reddit community", there are just lots of individual reddit communities and they're all absolute poo poo full of human trash. r/nameoftvshowyoulike might not be overwhelmed with guys who think free speech covers their right to look at kiddie porn but the substantially bigger subreddits that make the front page pretty much are

I've been accused of being a radical queerpunk Tumblrina because I've asked people to not use words like "tranny" and have been called a Feminazi so really I'm just going to lay my cards on the table and let you extrapolate from there.

you seem like you would be the first to shout "not all men!" or "all lives matter!" because you feel that the fact that a bunch of middle class white dudes might be maligned is worse than what people are actually complaining about

so stop defending Reddit. there are a whole lot of terrible things about reddit and saying "not all redditors!" only serves to clog up the discussion.

They still tolerate those sub reddits, or at least they did. That's my problem, not necessarily the amount of people on those subs.

Also shut up Naga this is of no use.

In other news, Reddit is basically the Renaissance movement of the Internet and a bastion of feminism and morality that we should all aspire too

I would love to use reddit to find out about local places to hike and fish but my old man brain cannot figure out how the gently caress one is supposed to read sites that work that way. I cannot figure out how to read stuff in order without jumping around. When SA dies I'm gonna get a ham radio and give up on the Internet.

Saying "the Reddit community" is really loving stupid because there are a million subreddits and pretty much everyone uses it. It's like saying "the Facebook community" or "the Youtube community".

That dumb poo poo is why I uninstalled the imgur app on my phone. I actually scrolled through all of it to see if the comments were calling it out for the gross furry bullshit that it was.

I'm annoyed that this whole community aspect blows the site up with unneeded javascript and stuff that makes it slow.
Just link the image directly so nobody has to deal with this stuff.

It's crazy, because I have seen message boards organized like that. Some php/vbulletin boards had it as an option, some low tech boards only offered that layout, but it's a really 90s design. It was a terrible design in the 90s, and I don't know how it held on long enough to be popular in the 10s.

E: for the record, I think you are supposed to go depth first.
