You have the right to remain silent. Anything you posted will be misquoted, then be used against you.

On GameFAQs you never have to pick. You always get both.

Reddit is atrocious, you need to follow the hivemind or you get downvoted.

At least here youre allowed to have dissenting opinions.

I haven't had much issue here but I was recently banned from a subreddit for mocking Sanders supporters simply because I said it was stupid to think Biden would pack the courts because he wants to work with Republicans, one of the mods was pretty triggered and made up a real to ban me, I got muted when I pointed this out to him.

you can disagree with the "hivemind" all you like there so long as you arent shitposting. back up your "controversial" statements and get upvoted.

Reddit for sure.

Less mod abuse since you're dealing with individual teams of mods on each individual subreddit. Some moderators are dumb and delete happy like on ELI5, but otherwise they seem fair.

Most subreddit I've been to have had very clearly laid out rules.

And it's important to note that each subreddit is run like it's own site. There are general reddit-wide rules you can't break like sharing illegal content, but otherwise if you find a sub with crappy mods you just make your own or find another one.

That's in contrast to here where you've got one group of mods for the entirety of the site and they are all enforcing different interpretations of the rules, resulting in inconsistent behavior. But then they also want to be your best friends and chill post (best case) or be antagonistic and toxic (worst case) at the same time.

I have literally zero moderations on reddit since 2017 while on Gamefaqs, it's like walking on glass to not get some overblown moderation in 2020.

Mind you my posting style never changes either.

Reddit by a mile.

I once went on the legal advice subreddit to ask for advice on fighting a bogus traffic ticket. The topic got deleted and when I was baffled and asked to mods for clarification, I got banned.

Just an example of how atrocious the Reddit mod system can be.

Reddit is the place where mods will ban you for having a good post, just so they can steal it and repost it for karma gains of their own.

See this is stupid, I shouldnt need to appease the hivemind by structuring my sentences to their liking in order for my words to even be seen.

Also 98% of the memes flooding the fuck out of your Reddit feed arent even chuckle worthy, Hell theyre not even sharp exhale worthy.

dankmemes, starwars, winstupidprizes, r/tinder, to name a few have reasonable "no shitposting, no pedo, no polititrolling" rules, which aren't difficult AT ALL to follow even on gamefaqs.

Also concerning rules, at least the specific ones on reddit are helpful unlike this site's vague and archaic ToS which inconsistently has to apply to every board on the site regardless of topic discussions.

People talking about getting downvoted for having dissenting opinions when they're posting on the site where random Pizza face mods delete your post for no real reason.

I've been modded on here for making a topic on the Smash board that said "would you bang your most wanted to get them in smash?" with the note "Please do not make topics about having sex with fictional characters." Not a TOS violation, but yeah sure, I guess I don't mind.

Except for the fact that dozens of that same topic had already been made, and are still being made, with no moderation.

Everybody gets to be a "little bit moderator" on reddit with its downvote system

I think it's fantastic. Don't agree with a post on the current hivemind you're part of? Downvote it, if the hivemind agrees you can pat yourself on the back knowing you're now part of the group
