Facebook also tending to restrict access to information behind a login. Compared to reddit, which most of its content is publicly visible. They are built on two very ideas though.

The amount of times I have to ask someone on Facebook to get information for me is upsetting. To clarify, I'm banned from Facebook, not for being a dickhead though

In the old days we used to call that excommunication. To be banned from your social network is to be excommunicated.

I agree with this. I've gotten tons of information from Reddit over the years, but have yet to create a user.

Could you, somehow, clarify that last part?
