I think this is just a case of numbers. Of course there's gonna be more crazy redditors. There's only a couple hundred people on CE vs millions on reddit.

Reddit is botted and astroturfed to shit. Then you also have tons of low effort updote me please posts on large subs. Makes it really hard to use except for niche subs.

To be fair, no one in my family accuses me of being sane.

You don't even have 100 karma. No one has it out for you.

"Fanboyism" is even worse on reddit btw.

you know you are right, I shouldn't care. But when lies and shit start getting flung around you feel the need to stand up for yourself.

Well if there is that much shit going around, i see 2 possibilities:

1. You are being over sensitive and it isn't nearly as bad as you think

2. You keep saying things that are pretty awful causing people to turn on you

I have no idea which it is. Also, I have been a little bit guilty of each of these.

It's like most places. The big sections are full of crazies and weirdos and trolls while smaller subs can be great. It's like how the IMDB boards use to be.

Reddit's still pretty good for finding communities for niche interests.

Any subreddits that regularly appear on top of r/all are full of bots, astroturfing and circlejerks.

Idk what "normal" is but this place is much more my sense of humor. Every subreddit is super hive mind and and if you say the wrong thing or even make a joke when people are trying to have "serious" discussion you get downvoted to oblivion.

I lasted about 3 days on Reddit before I realized that no matter what topic I was discussing, the place was WAY too toxic for me.

I've been on Threads, but the "For You" section is just filled with people asking fake outrage questions that are easily answerable via Google, so that app got deleted pretty quickly as well.

I remember when reddit was a cool niche nerd thing over a decade ago but after it organized the SOPA blackouts in 2012, corporate and governmental interests caught wind how of influential popular internet forums can be and it's been a thinly veiled astroturfing service ever since.

I noticed when I ask a tech related question on Reddit that I'll get multiple responses from overt bots that often have nothing to do with what I asked or at the very least only somewhat related. The site has issues to allow that to happen.

The worst for that has to be Microsoft tech support forums. Somebody posts a question, and the top response (even though it never actually answers the question asked) is some copy-paste trash from a so-called "independent expert".

It is also bad on the Linux forums as well. Not sure what is going on with Reddit or why they have said bot "independent experts".

It's internet ppl.

Like sometimes you meet someone and can tell they're an internet person. Their persona and character all derive from what they became inside the internet. It kinda means they exist there more than IRL. A citizen of the internet.

Conversely, there are people who can't navigate the internet. Seemingly less weird at times, but also classified as stupid when they type posts super awkwardly like it's a fireplace conversation.
