Yes, I agree. I've run into some great subreddits and extremely helpful people there. Reddit imo is the best social media experience, almost like the old usenet, if the 'engagey' subreddits are removed from one's list.

To each their own I guess, to me reddit is a feces filled dumpster fire, even the smart/tech subs lack critical thought and are full of bad/wrong information that gets upvoted.

Reddit is the best build your own bubble adventure game in all of human history. A few good subreddits here and there don’t make up for the epic toxicity of the broader site. Not to mention it’s functionally unusable unless you happen to know to browse the old.Reddit site. The “main” site is an abomination against the internet.
