I use the word Reddit as a pejorative.

“I stopped watching after the second season. The writing had become so reddit.”

“The steak itself was good but this sauce is a bit reddit.”

“Rose Street is a good night out but Raeburn Place is completely reddit.”

I read each of these three examples several times and I still have no idea what you meant, outside of general displeasure. Maybe this is the point. So in a strange twist of meta your examples are way too reddit for me.

I just invented one:

"Redditsplain"

v. "To make confident, even angry assertions about facts without a strong backing, but in a literary and well-reasoned style. To make bold statements about a subject where one is still a dilettante."

This is hardly unique to Reddit, and happens on HN as well.
