I've never been particularly active on reddit, but I really feel that site has been turning toxic so fast that even going there is just a frustration.
Outside of a few difficult to replace technical subreddits, I think I'm just going to drop it entirely.
Corporate social media was a mistake.
@scarlet Yeah, I really only use it for engaging in a very select handful of communities and even there it’s getting ridiculously toxic. Just a couple days ago I had people trying to invalidate me saying that Minecraft has no single “best” version because “You haven’t played for 14 years, your opinion doesn’t matter” despite the fact I never said I haven’t played the game at all in that time, just that I quit putting hundreds of hours in post 1.0
@thatgalsilver Honestly, I feel validated hearing your experience, because I've ran into similar things over there where I just sort of ended up stunned by the direction that people went - just being mean for its own sake.
I know the site is overran by bots, but there's such a human aspect to the meanness that I can't blame just the machines.

@thatgalsilver @scarlet same, once people that objected to what Reddit did a few summers ago left, that left a concentrated pool of really Reddit™ people on there and... yeaaah
I use it for exactly 1 voice-acting related subreddit and that's it (and really, I check back in every few months if that)
