I liked Reddit but I think it's too big now, the format just doesn't work for such a big website, I can't imagine the data they have though, I'm sure you can make some crazy psychological profiles with some of the data in there.
I agree the frontpage and r/all is a cesspool.
The trend is towards worse though with pretty much everything they do lately.
No it is not. Stop using literally so liberally.
Even HN is extremely impersonal, and while the moderation and content is significantly better than most alternatives, I still often feel like it mainly adds FOMO typed stress to my with little value gained in return.
I mean, even if we end up having an interesting conversation in this thread, we’ll probably never speak again. That’s not really a good form of interaction is it?
At least Reddit’s redesign made it easy to quit.
