I've said for over a decade that Reddit is for troglodytes.
What's odder to me is that it actually survived and went public when it started as an also-ran of digg.com, which found a way to quickly implode with redesigns and business model pivots. (Dru knows where dis is at.)
But is it the very worst? I mean, 4chan does its best there too.
All true. (Don't get me started on health optimization ... a sure sign that mental health >> physical.) And you're definitely right about it being unfunny (except when the subreddit is by definition, with two examples below) and how there's a tendency to converge towards bad groupthink.
Now this is getting to the meat of the matter.
LinkedIn is filled with self-promoting douchebags celebrating mindsets and past business heroes (it's like being an an evangelical Tupperware sales convention) and everyone writes with a single sentence per paragraph. I think half of the content is AI generated, because it's all a mash-up.
Ironocally, one of the best things about Reddit is https://www.reddit.com/r/LinkedInLunatics/. That and lately I do get a kick out of https://www.reddit.com/r/tragedeigh/. But as above.
Facebook is more like deranged boomer who discovered the Internetz in 2019. If I ever get a social media share from someone old and who acts like they lost control of their keyboard to a virus, it's undoubtedly a random share from Facebook.
Instagram is a death spiral of algorithmic content. Which anybody who bore the horror of opening a page on Facebook lately would know is the same algorithmic death spiral of ensh*ttification spam. I don't know why Zuckerberg just doesn't end it all while he's still ahead.
Twitter is a lot of self-flagellation made to look like they're flagellating others. When in fact, it's a lot of copy-paste of the same idiocy as if a religious mantra over and over again by people venting and hoping that peeing in the wind will somehow reach their targets of wrath and yet not end up in their mouths.
Any of my participation there has degraded into comically outsized trolling because I honestly cannot take anyone seriously on X anymore. Give me a conspiracy theory, and I'll make up a bat-sh*t crazy one that's five times worse in reply.
And yeah, Tuz remains the goat. Old tech, old school, but surprisingly it's like the cockroach of social media. Even capitalism hasn't found a way to nuke it.
It's going to be true in another year or so.
