Just want to add that, while Reddit is a huge time sink, it is pretty easy to just see the good parts of it:

- Mute any subreddit you do not enjoy

- Generously block any asshole in the comments

- Subscribe to the subreddits you do enjoy

- Create one or more themed multireddits of the subreddits you enjoy

My Reddit experience is cheesy feel good clips, cool videos of skilled people or weird occurences, funny niche humor and nerdy niche hobbies. No drama.

the same can be said about any social media. you can block/unfollow/mute anything, but it creeps through anyway.
