Why are so many people on Reddit cringe?

[Anosmyk]

Like it really needs to be studied it curls my toes. Majority on that website is so condescending and thinks they are right about everything. I would go to say they are eve worse then furries.

This forum is the most normal forum I’ve come across and THATS saying a lot haha 😂

[Anosmyk]

Oh how so naive i was at the time. I retract my statement. This is the most cringe forum there is.

all forums have insufferable maniacs.

The problem with this its just random topics all put together. However other forums have categories. But yes they all do.

Because normies are cringe? And by normies I mean people who mainly interact in person, and generally use facebook "sometimes".

For people like us, online communication is life. But for them... It's a place to ex posit WHO IS PRESIDENT. WHO IS DATING WHO. WHAT IS WRONG WITH AMERICA. WHY GAS SO EXPENSIVE?!

For the rest of us, the internet is just... life.

If you talk about the "front page" stuff it is because there are a handful of "Super Mods" that can control what shows up on the "popular" section, so there is a MASSIVE BIAS there.

Like, depending on time of day, you can tell who is controlling things by the amount of sports posts, cat posts, anti-Trump posts, or anime posts that make it to the front page without actually being popular naturally.

Remember, the creator of reddit said reddit was originally made to extol the virtues of a "Free and Open Internet" to allow what is actually popular to make it to the front page regardless of how "controversial" it might be. He then commits "self-delete" and the site is taken over by biased corpos and political agendas.

So when you give a platform to the loudest control-freak minorities, they are going to use it to try and control things, and to people not under their thumbs, it comes off as cringe.

Here comes that "why reddit is cool". Reddit was never cool, it's for you normie, wait for cake day, and grin. Don't try to make people care about it.

I consider Reddit to be social media. Social media in general is negative in behavior.

I was on Reddit for a while just for one specific game (Another Eden) and once I found out that the people moderating the forum were also using the forum that was enough for me. Might as well have been trash pickup day.

"Well actually" types are everywhere not only Reddit

[Iggy Wolf]

How about this? Everyone on social media in general are cringe. Everyone will make it seem like THEIR personal problems are EVERYONE ELSE's personal problems. They are NOT. Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs means that EVERY living creature will first and foremost take care of their OWN problems and needs first, then the problems and needs of their family and then maybe their friends. The rest of society however? GET IN THE ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ QUEUE and take a number.

We can't be expected to solve everyone else's problems. This is the thing that's always annoyed me about racism and sexism. Everyone treats their problem as somehow society's problem, except for the part that EVERY person probably has some problem they're dealing with, and being a minority doesn't make you special or exempt.

And blaming society doesn't exactly endear you to people or garner sympathy. Just accept that YOUR problem is on a list of a whole BUNCH of problems that need to be solved, and that's what politicians and politics is for. If you're expecting the average person to help somehow solve your problem, you're expecting too much.

Humans are by their nature selfish, and not exactly wrong for being so. It's sort of a luxury to be able to have your ♥♥♥♥ together that you can afford to help other people as well. If you're volunteering to help the less well off, more power to you. But altruism is a choice, NOT a requirement.

Its a censorship platform from day one and was designed to reinforce those opinions through conditioning and rigging "this is a popular opinion".

As a Redditor user, it's fine with me. It all depends on the subject as Reddit has many forums for different topics.

Only troublemakers, trolls would have hard time with Reddit.

One other thing to note that Reddit caters to western views. if one is from internationally besides United States then it would be difficult.

I use reddit more often actually now. I actually started going on there and there is some good people there. All depends on the subreddit.

Reddit's golden age is long gone.
We need new subforum platforms, moderated by the community, withou pressure by a parent company.

We all curate our own Reddit experiences. My feed is dominated by subs related to ancient history, the classics, programming, france and the UK. Yours is probably dominated by music subs (just guessing). I definitely see more toe curly stuff here. Not just on OT but on SteamCommunity in general. If my Reddit feed was dominated by massive default subreddits, it would probably change my view. I doubt I would use it if that stuff was all over my front page daily.

Karma system is dumb and the gaming subreddit is a joke most of the time
