I definitely prefer the message board format to whatever the hell Reddit is, but its not that bad unless you actually care about Karma and shit on Reddit. I basically just lurk there and only follow small subreddits of things that actually interest me

The only way to possibly find quality posts on reddit is to go to a comment section and sort by controversial

I always find it funny people refer to reddit as a collective and not as many different microcosms.

The content and community is different on /r/medicalschool than it is on /r/rockclimbing than it is on /r/motorcycles.

Smaller, more topic-based subreddits generally cater to good discussion. Moderated subreddits based on expertise like /r/AskScience and /r/AskHistorians usually provide extensive, well-thought and cited posts and eliminate layperson conjecture.

I imagine most people who criticize reddit post on frontpage default subs once they've already made the frontpage and feel there is no "discussion", just circle jerking. That's probably the worst way to use reddit and I don't blame you for having that opinion if that were the case.

Once I got rid of the meme-y frontpage subreddits and avoid some of the larger, more popular subreddits my experience got way better. Also reddit is terrible for politics by design, and I imagine a lot of the more heated political posters on here probably don't like it too much. Try getting a hobby <_<

The best advice anyone ever told me was to unsub from all of the recommended subreddits and then follow your own based on your interests

I've liked Reddit ever since then. (still don't care to post stuff though)

I just use it for whatever game advice I might need. For "recommended" stats, builds, how-to's etc...GameFAQs doesn't always have a reliable or easy to find guide for specific things and Reddit actually has decent discussion if you do a little digging.

Unfortunately, when things are popular, it becomes annoying just like any other place.
