There’s a key difference, at least when it comes to hating Reddit.
Most [all?] users here have actual, informed reasons to hate Reddit, from past experiences with the site. They aren’t simply joining some bandwagon due to social expectations to bend to the crowd.
And it’s still a circle-jerk
Yes, it is. I don’t disagree with thetreesaysbark and you on that.
However I think that a circlejerk formed by similar-minded individuals gathering into the same place is far, far more benign than your “typical” circlejerk revolving around social pressure.
Also, let us [humans in general] not fool ourselves into believing that circlejerks are avoidable. Humanity boils down to “circlejerking hairless chimps” anyway.
I miss the IMDB discussions under each film…
Was great to finish a film and have a question or and ideas and be able to talk about it.
It’s not exactly a replacement, but TV tropes provides a lot of satisfaction on this front.
Abandon all hope ye who enter there!

Why won’t my ex leave me the fuck alone?
Reddit actually solved that problem for me by blocking themselves from appearing in Bing search results.
Ahh that explains why Ecosia has remained so pleasant to use. Bing can’t scrape it anymore 😅
