I realized recently Ive spent a ton of years being a reddit user. Somehow that's where I settled. Politics, covid19, and memes have really been making me rethink where I spend my time on the internet, its stopped being fun. I think the person that posts on reddit has changed. I thought it might be an interesting thing to reflect in a longer format blog post thing, but not sure.
there really is a toxic undertone to a lot of subreddits. Even the niche one's have some crazy people wandering in.
My problem is i don't know what to really replace it with. I don't think the alternatives are great. Forums seem deadish, the format isn't great to use on mobile. Reddit is nice to use in an app, makes it easy to post and read. It almost feels like the social web has run its course.
