I have been on reddit for just about 12 years now. Something I’ve noticed over time is just how hateful the place has become. A complete outrage machine. Every single sub became filled with it. I’ve filtered so many subreddits over the last few years, it’s insane. I don’t know enough about this place to be sure, but I do hope it doesn’t become the same type of echo chamber of anger.

    The good news was that it depended on the subreddit. Lots of small subreddits didn’t have this problem. However, there were a number of large subreddits that exists for exactly that reason.

      Depends. Lots of small subs were made specifically to promote save create hate. FDS and Chapo trap house come to mind

        Oh sure. But you could find plenty of them that didn’t.
