Bro!!! The growth is incredible! Literally when I joined was under 500 subs and between your last two releases you have grown exponentially. Glad to be along for the ride from the start =) looking forward to where you take us and what you can help us to learn.
Janitors are great people! I like how they clean up things without getting squeamish and prevent us from getting illnesses and injuries. I always make a point to say hello to them and busboys in restaurants. Reddit mods are different story. They're not helpful at all. The janitors may deal with nasty stuff on a daily basis, but they're doing something productive with their lives.
Reddit users are extremely disrespectful over the bare minimum. You make a mistake or have a different opinion, you’ll get downvoted to hell. Adults have rational conversations, even if they make mistakes. You can be corrected by normal people and move on with a topic. They drag things out and troll. I’d never want to meet these people in real life.
It was not always the same as it is now. Reddit is degenerating slowly but it was a great place to share your opinion with different people, learning, being immersed in interesting discussions... I'm starting to thinking in abandon it and move on into other communities. I left Twitter (now X). I left Tumblr. I've no problem in quiting when it doesn't give me anything good or interesting.
I got my post killed on unpopular opinion because they used a automod bot that flagged my post for using a restricted word but didn't specify what the word was in my 400 word post. It wasn't a swear word. The post was clean. The automod bots email encouraged me to email the mods if I wanted to understand how their filters worked and so I did. I just asked which word the filter caught so I could avoid it in the future. No response, just banned for "spamming the mod". Dicks
I got my post removed for being a "popular opinion", even though when the opposite is posted most of the comments say "how popular that opinion is, and that the sub is going to shit". I disagreed with the mod over a couple of back and forths, and then got banned for "sealioning". I wanted to reply that sealioning isn't a catch-all term for when someone disagrees with you without swearing in your face, but they also muted me!
@@froggygun Yes! Happened to me earlier, this person commented that their dog is "so strong she can and has dragged a grown man around and broke his arm" and how "The kids know not to play tug of war with her" and he got downvoted to heck, I simply commented that he should be careful with the kids if she has snapped on an adult, and all of a sudden he gets a bunch of upvotes and I'm being downvoted and called an idiot that knows nothing about dogs. My sister had to have plastic surgery because of a dog bite on her face. I know plenty about dogs. Dude was literally boasting about how violent his dog is. And I'm the idiot. 🙄🤷♀️ I don't understand this world.
I had the nerve to post a comment on Reddit on the subject of how underemployment caused by chronic illness can make it hard to date. The comment was not perfectly neutral and people immediately assumed I was playing the victim. I was downvoted to oblivion and attacked by like five people, who were all upvoted like crazy. The seething anger and bile was shocking. Wow. My original sin was having chronic illness and chronic pain and not being perfectly stoic about it, I guess. I'm limiting my Reddit interactions to very specific subs now. Holy sh*t.
@@squamish4244I spectate reddit trust me the environment of reddit always be ready to be bullied for either the dumbest reasons or mood of the majority.
My biggest annoyance with Redditors is how they always respond with rude pandering or passive aggressive comments like they feel superior to others. Often in an argument over something stupid. And if they can’t find a good counterpoint, they just look at your account and go through your history.
Experienced an extreme version of this today, and deleted my account. It’s so obvious that these people are hiding behind anonymity to say things they wouldn’t dare say irl. It’s pathetic on their part.
@@tiahnarodriguez3809 oh my god this is exactly my story. I too experienced this bs (someone literally called me 'disgusting' and 'dangerous' because I posted a funny picture of a flower (I know, zero context)). That's when I realized, I can't do this bs anymore and deleted the post AND the account.
Once I found a post about someone complaining about dish soap and how it made their dishes smell like soap. I nicely commented saying I don't have that issue with my scented dish soap, and the guy proceeded to flame me for it. It ended up being a 20-reply long chain of him badgering me about using scented dish soap lmao
Theyre wild west internet generation; super rude, full of rage, hate speech (its crazy how theyre adult but behave like that😂). If you see ppl say "i miss the old internet days" yes theyre one of them
The users are also a problem. Toxic people who dogpile on you because you have a different opinion (this is not a joke), creeps, pedos, power abusing mods.
Reddit is just toxic. I made a Encouraging post about men's mental health because as a guy I'm aware of young men nowadays feeling like they don't matter in society so I made a Positive encourage comments in the hopes it may help someone that read it. After 20 mins of postiting, Someone replied saying "Men's mental health is important, but assuming Women have it easier is ignorant" Like What? Of course there are wonderful women who struggle with mental health the same way as men do. Reddit is just negative, Man. Someday I'll delete it.
They literally banned the word “groomer” because people kept calling out the pedophiles from the LGBT community. It’s appalling that pedophilia is being considered a sexuality by some.
@@applepretz5368 I hope you deleted it. Reddit is terrible for your mental health. I used it for about 2 years and thought I couldn’t live without it. When I eventually deleted the app, 2 weeks later I legitimately felt like a better person. I was slightly less depressed and anxious and angry.
"I think reddit just hates everyone" Yes. Just recently saw a post from a girl about getting bombarded with downvotes and unhelpful comments in r/curlyhair because her hair was wavy and not curly. There is an r/wavyhair but that's beside the point.
I got downvoted for telling people how I was trying to improve my health. I had a nice long think about that and ended up on this video. I'm not sure I can keep using reddit anymore.
dude, search it up, theres literally a fucking subreddit entirely dedicated to hating the dog breed of pitbulls, who have a set of rules that entirely prevents you from defending the breed of dogs at all, its so disgusting
@@CharaChocolateButtercup Same shit happened to me but with RDR2, that just sent me over the edge. Dudes literally getting mad at me because I fucking said their beloved game has a bug that is annoying. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! THIS GAME IS PERFECT!!!!!!! IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR IT TO HAVE BUGS LIAAAAAAAAAAAR!!!!!"
@@frnkieroyaoi It can, but you have to shift through a lot of bs, and people can be insanely reactive with their answers and antagonize you even when you make a sound argument. That’s why I deleted my account cuz it was too much bs for me. Though I am grateful for the people who genuinely responded to me and provided me with good advice.
@@frnkieroyaoi It's based on luck, Reddit is a cesspool and echo chamber for many users. One thing I've noticed that Reddit have a rampant hive mentality for opinions, siege mentality as defensive mechanism, tribalism and extremism community in major of the subs. Good answer can be found if you're lucky when the discussion wasn't overtaken by the certain mod mentality group, I think more than half of the time those good or neutral answers often got downvoted to oblivion thus they're buried below while the top replies will be those "crowd selection" creating the outrage and knee jerking reaction chain. It is like Quora, most of the time you will get those sarcastic answers that triggered the certain group of people with your question
@@juliancalero8012 If anything, they're worse. Governments are designed to be accountable, them acting on their own behalf after being elected is a "bug" that can be someday fixed. Corporations are designed to maximize profit at all costs, no matter what. While a private business selling pizza through targeted ads seems harmless, a company like Cambridge Analytica can be a bridge for governments to effectively use the same tools and tactics for shady agendas with no accountability.
My biggest annoyance with Reddit is the voting system. You can't ever speak against the majority in a sub--even if it's constructive, well-meaning criticism--because everyone will just paint you as wrong and downvote you until your comment can't be seen, thereby silencing you. I hate this.
yeah. i got downvoted to hell recently because of a misunderstanding on my post. people completely turned a blind eye , continued hating and even insulting me , not even reading my clarifications. it got so bad i had to remove the entire post
I wholeheartedly agree with this video. I got permanently banned from r/whitepeopletwitter just because I told a moderator that rejecting every diverging opinion was no way to have a constructive discussion.
Got banned from twoxchromosomes for just disagreeing respectfully about why some people use female instead of woman conversationally. 🙄 Power tripping mods are the worst but why even be part of a community that hates diverging opinions. I just say, have fun in your echo chamber.
@@ExtraVerted Yeah, I learned to tread lightly on that subreddit. It's a massive echo chamber. Anything that appear to be confrontational make them go crazy. But ironicaly my most upvoted comment on that subreddit was: "That kind of situation is precisely why echo chambers are dangerous to society."
I remember on one subreddit I posted a meme and someone said “F*ck off karma farmer” this was when I first started using Reddit and had no idea what karma even was but it’s amazing how quick Redditors are to insult and bully people over nothing. Is Karma Reddit’s street cred? Who gives a shit?
Probably because it had been used or overused before. Rookie mistake is not going through a sub's recent history of posts first. In the end though, it is nothing and you didn't deserve a reply like that.
I was in a German sub reddit for "dark humor" comments were almost always just "deleted"and full of people complaining about how" racist, sexist, violent etc.. " the jokes were.
I remember someone made a post about some random private business, they wrote a bible verse on the receipt. Ordinarily, someone wouldn't even read anything else on the receipt except the price and go about their day. Well not those redditors 😂. They were talking about calling corporate on a private business.
"Don't be a Redditor; be a person who uses Reddit." This reminded me of the fact that Redditors argue over the validity of other Reddit users' opinions _unironically_ based on their karma/upvote score. Like they unironically point out how much karma they have as a hail-mary attempt to win an argument. (Except they don't see it as a hail-mary attempt, but an actual legitimate way to delegitimize somebody's opinion LMAO.) It's the equivalent of the pathetic/weird non-argument of going into somebody's Facebook profile and posting their profile pic in the comment thread. (But if the "victim" of this act was making fun of somebody else's looks in the first place, then I understand posting _their_ profile pic to give them a taste of their own medicine)
I didn't know Reddit got that bad. I stopped using it some years back. So, redditors are saying your Karma points are a form of credibility? Is this correct?
seriously, i'll go to some post and then comments will say "oh yeah we redditors are all creeps" and it weirds me out because making social media a part of your identity is just... weird. like i don't comment on youtube and think to myself "i'm a youtuber". i had a friend even avoid admitting they looked at reddit because they didn't want to be associated with the reddit image but like, bro its a forum, there's a shit ton of things you could be looking at that ISN'T weird or creepy and i couldn't care less.
During the very short time I used reddit (I wanted to see what all the hype was about), I noticed that there's a huge problem with dogpiling in comment sections. It seems that everyone immediately dogpiles onto someone who has a different opinion or argument and mass downvote them without even bothering to think and listen, so it ends up discouraging people who want to share a different point of view from saying anything because of the mob mentality, so comment sections end up being echo chambers and that can easily become very toxic and dangerous.
Yes, HUGE emphasis on the echochamber part. I understand maybe debating someone with different opinions than you, but it's pointless if you're not open minded or receptive to changing your mind. People will dogpile on to someone just to reinforce their own beliefs and get that extra dopamine hit of having their opinions validated. This even goes outside of reddit or social media. It seems like people in general refuse to use their brains capacity to think outside themselves and everything they believe to be true. It does nothing but keeps us and humanity stagnant.
@Brian Babin a downvoted comment is like a corpse once youre bombed with downvotes the rats come feeding off of it by writing some insults to get some free upvotes. what's funny is that everytime i get downvoted i get more downvotes than the person im replying to gets upvoted. it seems like a lot of people just like to downvote downvoted comments for god knows what reason aswell.
@@Nickel_Eye Oh yeah in every sub has underlying theme of progressive politics. So you could be talking about something Innocuous as rocks and the The police will be in full force
People love to claim Twitter as the worst social media, but at least that place allows differentiating opinions. Reddit is by far the worst platform I’ve ever been on in my life. Every sub is a hivemind, and the moderators are the saddest of people drunk with power.
I've heard about Aaron Swartz. I was doing research on university when I came by that name and went through his Wikipedia page. He fought for what he believed in to the very end, but it's a shame that he died so young.
then a young person dies its usually cause the world failed them and the innocent pays the price its never the guilty ones i think he would be even more disappointed what he tried build has become and reddit should be better off destroyed entirely but it wont matter if one reddit is gone another one will replace it and the cycle repeats itself its probably not the reddit itself for what it is but twisted human nature always ruins everything they touch
Gotta love how redditors just downvote anything they even slightly dislike or disagree with. It's the biggest echo chamber I've ever seen, and I used to use Twitter.
That's exactly why no thread on Reddit is upvoted one hundred percent. Hell, when a thread's created at first, then five minutes or later on, it will go down to fifty percent. smh, Reddit
As much as I hate twitter, it's a little bit better since Elon took over but it's still pretty bad, it is leaps and bounds better than Reddit. I had a post come up in my feed one day and it was pro-choice, and it said that babies growing in the womb is r@p3!! I didn't say anything about my opinions on ab0rti0n itself, I just said that that was a crazy comparison and disgusting as someone who has experienced r@p3 and the mod downvoted me, and others, into oblivion and banned me. 😐 This is not even the first time this happened to me, where I said something objectively reasonable and got down-voted to hell.
I saw a post on my college’s subreddit. It was literally just about how people aren’t respectful enough, and are too self-centered, rude, and inconsiderate. I thought it was a true post at least worth consideration. Then in the comments below people were dogpiling him, saying he was an asshole, and acting like an entitled brat who was too demanding of people. All because he said people should respect others more. Bottom line is, Reddit is full of people who have reached levels or stupid I never thought possible.
Tbf, the sub was probably full of college students who felt they were called out. My college exorcice was like that. Couldn’t speak on what really happens on campus unless you wanted to be shunned or harassed. It was like a cult of something.
It’s psychologically damaging when you know beyond the shadow of a doubt that you’re right about something and the wrong information is being spread like a toxin, and you get downvoted to hell and dogpiled on. It’s basically like saying “you’re wrong.” “Yeah man you’re wrong.” “You’re a total asshole and you’re wrong.” But like 500 times. Now imagine that happening all of the time. Who wouldn’t go crazy or depressed over that?
This thing happened with JKR when the video game dropped out, on every sub there were people saying: "She is donating money to anti-trans bills", I always asked them for a link or article proving it and they didn't reply anymore to me, however they were still parroting that JKR donates money to those bills ...
@@EnxhioKotoni Yeah I left Reddit for this reason. People decide not to use real information to back an argument. Often times their argument doesn't even have merit. I feel like they know this though. They know they're just spewing a popular opinion and can't back it up when questioned, so they either make it your problem, make you out to be an asshole, or they just disappear.
@@AdamGulotta Id like to think like you, but I believe that that's not the case. People just believe whatever they side with without actually verifying the news they parrot. I haven't left reddit, I'm just more mindful filtering out information. It's still a very good source and probably the last place where you can find some genuine interaction, even tho it's getting harder by day
Amazing documentary, this reminds me of a recent event that occured. On r/place a mod was bypassing the 5 minute cool down, and someone caught it, and the mods kept removing posts that exposed them. Very very underrated channel.
Twitter is better than Reddit imo. Yeah it’s toxic asf but it’s like that EVERYWHERE on the internet. You can atleast have any opinion you want on Twitter without getting banned.
I'm a huge fan of your style and delivery of documentaries. Your Discord one was phenomenal, you're also incredibly talented at narration. Incredible work as always.
I got banned for saying that drag queen story hour was harming children. It is when trans women tell children stories about homosexuality. Disgusting (cant ban me now idiots!).
Let me guess, Islam? We sensible people know it's a filthy, dangerous cult. The problem with the left is they have an "all in" mentality when it comes to people, which inevitably means inviting in the dangerous types. There's a lack of critical thinking skills among leftists, also delusion.
Sounds like Islam. That was your mistake, Muslims are reddits favorite "victim group" right behind trans people. You say something against their golden child and you feel the wrath of the sweaty kingdom.
the ending was so powerful. i 100% agree with the fact we need to make mistakes, hear others opinions, and not judge someone because of their's. this is super important in politics right now especially.
Reddit is an echo chamber where people are not given space to criticize or disagree. People just expect you to write stuff which will make the others happy or you just get downvoted to the depth and basically you can’t even post anything on any subreddit because of negative karmas
Now imagine being a foreigner, using a VPN to access the Internet without censorship, watching this video on UA-cam and having an account on reddit. And that foreigner is watching the video and accessing the Internet from Mainland China.... Yes that foreigner is me. As a kinda long reddit user (5+ years) and living here, this video really ticks a lot of boxes and say a lot of right.
@@DABUNGINATOR I mean China does allow Chinese citizens to leave China, since that is me and I'm living in Australia accessing the majority of the information on the internet.
When I regularly used reddit I was depressed as fuck. Constantly being dogpiled on for saying something while watching someone else word my exact point in a slightly different way get praise on praise. People immediately attacking me instead of asking for clarification. Often then refusing to apologize for their misunderstanding even when the issue was solely their fault. Mods, as said in the video, deciding they don't like one thing you said and banning you while letting their toxic buddies run absolutely rampant. Incels that talk about how other human beings should be forced to give them intimacy either socially or by government mandate. Talking about murdering, raping, ect out in the open without any real consequences. The bullying, the harassment... people following your every post just to downvote it and silence you because you said one thing they didn't like three months ago. Fuck reddit and the people that use it.
I came across a UA-cam channel some time ago where incels were openly discussing how best to grape women and children and get away with it, how to physically abuse women etc. The channel owner, who has meanwhile been arrested and is to my knowledge in prison (I hope so!!! I only heard about it because he is quite well known), was heavily promoting that. I only came across that channel because a then friend, who I didn't yet know was an incel and a serial killer, had sent me a link and I had no idea what it was about. Anyway, I was so shocked I was physically sick. Then this channel was being discussed on another channel. People were all saying how great and wonderful the channel owner of the above mentioned channel was. I was the only person who pointed out that he actually promoted extreme violence including grape and murder. I was being inundated and I do mean inundated with threats, death threats, bullying, personal insults etc for months afterwards... I'm going through similar now again though not related to that channel but simply because I pointed something out that I have personal experience of, on a thread where everybody was saying what they WANT to believe, though none have the personal experience. Same thing again... weeks and weeks of getting inundated with personal insults, death threats, curses, wishes for the worst... All on UA-cam, never been on Reddit.
i deleted reddit about an hour ago after 4 years. I realized that people argue about the silliest thing and they emotionally bring people down for just not believing the same things as them. People basically coming for me in mobs just for my innocent opinions has truly taken an emotional toll on me. I'm done. This isn't what the late ceo would've wanted.
i just deleted mine 10 minutes ago. I got permanently banned by a gay moderator because i didn’t like short shorts on a male character that he liked. i was expressing what i liked/disliked about a character’s design. but apparently, when a subreddit mod doesn’t like your opinion, they can ban you just like that. getting banned was the best thing they’ve done for me. now i don’t have to use reddit anymore. Reddit is a toxic crater crawling with disgusting mods who police speech with hypocrite attitudes. Those mods enjoy too much their tiny dose of fake power. reddit mods fucked up mentality: _If i say it, it’s free speech. if you say it, it’s hate speech._ Good riddance.
Actually stopped using reddit not too long ago. The entire site has become toxic with the karma system and moderation. My mental health improved so much.
I just deactivated my account yesterday and this video makes me happy that I did it. I was a part of r/totaldrama (kudos if you remember that show) and my favorite character happens to be the most controversial character of all, that character being Sierra. I initially victimized myself for having the unpopular opinion, but I eventually realized that I was a part of the problem. I would harass anyone who said ANYTHING bad about Sierra and try to defend her with annoying baby talk, and when I was called out for it I would ignore them and keep going. It was hard deactivating my account because I did manage to find a lot of nice people, but it made me so chronically online that I lost my ability to have real-world interactions and engage in real-world activities. Heck, I barely even left my own room because of how much I used it! I feel like I deactivated my account for the better and hope it can help me grow as a person. Thank you for making this!
Props to you for acknowledging your role in the problem. Don't see anyone else admitting to being part of the problem. Good luck on staying off reddit.
it sucks that having a different opinion from the majority will get you attacked. also, this has to be one the more underrated channels on youtube for sure!
Couldn't agree more!! Redditor needs to learn and respect other people's opinion!! I've been mob attacked in Reddit 2 times now. All because I said something about cats😐😐
you can't even ask a very unharmful and innocent question without being berated by someone who probably never seen another person besides their moms in a month. I was just asking something from a sub because i am new there and the replies are so sarcastic, it oozes smugness through the screen. they think what they know that others don't makes them superior.
Not a big Reddit page, but I got banned from a page that discusses a YA book series (it's A Court of Thorns and Roses) because basically I disagreed with the mob one too many times. I was trying to point out some flaws in the series and how I would change them (I'm also a writer and find critiquing other works is a good way to keep my own skills sharp). I got the usual "if you hate the series, why are you here" and I said "don't hate the series, it's one of my favorites, but that doesn't make it perfect". Got banned for harassment. All because the mob ganged up on me and I fought back. It's a microcosm of the larger issue on Reddit, and social media in general, that mob mentality is as prevalent today as it was in the days of witch burning. People ask "how could so many have let that atrocity happen?" and the simple answer is, no one wants to go against the crowd because its a common, inherently human, trait to want to be liked and in our minds, you must think alike to be accepted. And the other reason is that people are afraid to stick out and go against the crowd, are afraid of the mob overtaking them and shutting them down again. I still think Twitter is worse than Reddit about the mob mentality though, imo. I've seen so many threads where people make inflammatory statements and then say "I'm turning off notifications, so don't even try to argue with me" and they also alter the ability of who can respond to the post *cough* Amber Heard *cough* because they're afraid of having to explain their view point, because they know they can't.
I got permanently banned from r/offmychest because of an innocuous comment I made that wasn't pandering. - Girl is venting because her bf rudely dismisses her claim of being unknowingly "needle spiked" causing her to black out while she was out drinking at the club while he was at work - She made it home alone that night despite being "blacked out" and didn't even call her bf to let him know until a day later - She says she's been r4yped a couple times before over the past 3 years when clubbing while her bf was at work I just called her out on her bs, stating that her boyfriend was probably tired of her going to the club alone while he's at work especially after she's claimed to be assaulted which could've had an equally sus story and that the relationship isn't going to last. I was downvoted into oblivion saying that I'm victim blaming and that her boyfriend is the one who's a POS for brushing it off and that she should leave him. Then my comment was deleted and I was banned by the moderator who undoubtedly had either a fedora, pink hair, or both. Reddit is an echo chamber of parotting each other's opinions looking to seek approval and virtual pats on the back from the herd. They are practically NPCs who need other people to tell them what to think and are too scared to form their own opinions. It's not a loss as I've only ever posted a handful of times there because I can't stand the community, especially after growing up on 4chan.
Reddit and twitter are two sides of the same coin. Twitter allows anyone to speak their mind with anonymity, which inevitably leads to toxicity. Whereas reddit uses mob mentality, there is only one opinion aloud on reddit, and if you speak against it, you get silenced, this also leads to toxicity.
On twitter when someone makes a post asking what their favorite vtubers say about them and its just unhinged female vtubers you can say "they wish they'd wish the vtubers would assault them", but on reddit you get banned for glorifying violence.
I’d say both incorporate their own mob mentalities, but Reddit definitely projects ‘echo chamber’ to the extreme with all its sub reddits, silencing and whatnot.
You can always tell when someone just wants the moral high ground or doesn’t know what they’re talking about when they say “educate yourself.” You can also tell a Reddit mod is just deleting your post for no reason when they say that same phrase.
Now how does this only have 13k views. This is like a high budget documentary, something you would see on Netflix, this is crazy man, your going places.
i dont think its social media but the source thats humans characteristic itself social media is basically the result of peoples interaction and its mirrors what people really are
@@Nogardtist if you give them a tool that allows them to interact without the actual need to be physically present for said convo, they'll turn into the hate filled neck beards who try to influence society. Stay off the internet and these people don't bug you too much.
@@Nogardtist I would argue social media does influence people to be worse. In person, people are more compelled to be moral and level headed when interacting with others. Online? There really isn't any risk or punishment besides getting banned. Nobody knows who you are so you can be as bad as possible.
I really hate how everytime the good people who make decisions on what is morally right always dies or gets left to rot in the dark some way or another all the time everytime.
Reddit is awful. Everyone is a mindless lemming who are desperate to dogpile on anyone that has a differing opinion. And what's more typical is that they don't have any opinions of their own and rely heavily on others to spoon feed them opinions. It's all about that sweet karma.
Reddit users have been awfully vindictive and malicious. I've got nothing but the past two elections to thank, as to how rampant the toxicity levels have gotten on that platform. Just in this entire year alone rather, past couple months, I've had the following happen to me: I would get brigaded for expressing honest, non-instigating opinions. Downvote parades would happen, I'd get confrontational users who'd swipe at me with a snarky remark then blocking me after. I've gotten accounts banned because the hate from them was so great, that even when my account wasn't violating any rules, there must've been alts or a small band of people that hated me so badly to orchestrate a ban on my account. They've even gotten my throwaway account banned too and it only has one post to it, where I post for mental health reasons. I keep coming back, just to show them that I will not be intimidated by their childish antics to stop using a platform. A platform that they feel that they own because what, they farm for karma? That they feel like their tenure staggers mine and other users in my position and that their say is law? No, to me, they're just names on a freaking platform. Nothing more. My advice for people who use reddit - avoid opinion-based subreddits at all costs. Nothing good can come from them, a lot of them are harbored by tense and edgy individuals who'll spin everything and anything out of context to make themselves seem righteous in the end. Avoid politically-based subreddits too if you can help it. Avoid even venting subreddits too which is hard to do because some days you want to vent. But even that is filtered because everyone practically judges your vent on whether or not it's valid, when it doesn't matter because all you want to do is vent. Reddit is just full of self-righteous, self-patting, no-life, arm-chair keyboard warriors with too much damn time on their hands to do what they do.
In my experience, it really just depends on the day. I've had spirited discussions with people on there about politics and nothing happened (other than fuming on both sides I imagine). But then I was randomly banned from r/whatisthisthing permanently. I'm also a part of a few ex-religious subreddits and those haven't been toxic at all that I've been aware of.
@@logger22 That's why I like UA-cam better, and that's why I come here all the time. Whenever I need help and information about international travel (trip cost, food & drink, culture, people, etc.), my choice is both UA-cam and Tripadvisor, and I am thankful for that. People on Reddit like r/travel and r/solotravel give out crap on their own and make false statements about your future trip because they act like they are pro-expert of everything or they have experienced, that's why I quit Reddit.
sweet vid my dude, I've been really frustrated with how reddit's been run these days. Ever since the banning of 2balkan4you because of some comments, I've really lost hope. It was the best subreddit for jokes with balkan people and was really great to see how other people think in and around my country. The community was real and nobody was really serious.
yeah banning of 2balkan4you by reddit was disappointing, esp for me because i had never been on reddit when it existed. now i see all the memes about banning of that sub and getting to know the drama in the balkans and it makes me kinda restless sometimes
I think one of the worst things about Reddit is when someone gets offended at your post or comment and decides to stalk your profile in order to find something you posted that will help them will the argument against you. It's so sad and pathetic.
Reddit is just one of those apps that really pisses me off. Especially when it comes down to politics. Anybody who identifies as a Republican on that app is struck down almost instantly. Sure I may not agree with the Democrats, but I’m always willing to understand their opinions no matter how much I disagree. Reddit is full of crybabies and asocial people.

A dark web user once compared Reddit to the dark web, saying it's practically the surface version. That alien mascot has seen some shit, and still smiles to this day. I salute their resilience.
Honestly, if I ever found out someone is an active Reddit mod I'd never hire them because there's a very high chance they're going to be toxic, if not naturally then by contact with excessive toxicity. That place can turn good people rotten.
Reddit has been seriously ruining my mental health. At first I used it for advice because I had no one to talk to. It was also very good for venting. But now, people on Reddit just…hate everyone. I just don’t understand this, man. I’m 17, and I started Reddit at 16. It’s been a year. I just hate this platform so much and it’s ruining my worldview. I need to quit this platform.
I'm certain the majority of people on there just want to be against others. I've used reddit for a long time now and it does have a negative impact on your mental health with how toxic people are for seemingly no reason. It is a sad place, full of sad people who want you to be sad as well.
I did a similar thing and eventually just deleted my account & app on my devices. what I learned is, no matter how good your intentions are, if you dont construct your paragraphs in way you dont degrade yourself or beat yourself up over something, chances are you're gonna get hate/negative comments. Idk if its psychological but I do notice posts about hating themselves gets the most positive comments but posts about your accomplishments or how proud you are of this or you failed at something you know you can actually thrive in bc youre aware of your potential/intelligence/skills, youre gonna get hate & criticized. ChatGPT have been SO MUCH useful to me than seeking insights from strangers who projects their hatred to the world and their lives on the internet. Reddit is def not for everybody especially if youre not the toxic type who thrives on craving upvotes just to get by in life.
reddit has destroyed my mental health. Hanging around meme subreddits has gotten me harassed for being lgbtq. Hanging around lgbtq subreddits has gotten me insulted for not believing in communism, being called a fascist enabler because i'd consider myself a libertarian (freedom of speech, bodily autonomy and stuff) with some social values (regulations, helping the poor, universal healthcare with the option of going private etc.). Hell even going onto a subreddit as seemingly innocent as r/cats you will see people calling the owner an abuser for not having spayed their cat yet. I remember a 15 year old kid being berated because he asked reddit for help with his injured cat that his parents refused to take to the vet
I really enjoy when we see ourselves in the mirror of a social media app like reddit or twitter and our reactions as a society to eachother makes us so sick of our own stupidity ..that we prefer to break it and run away😂 , this is actually helpfull for some self awarness.
That has happened to me on UA-cam as well though. I reported a channel where the channel owner and everybody in the comments section were promoting grape and murder of women and children, and discussing how best to abuse women and children and get away with it. UA-cam moderators found "nothing wrong with it". The channel continued until the channel owner ended up in prison but only for his political opinion, not for being a pedo.
The Redditors themselves are just rude and just add to the cancer of this toxic shitty website. They constantly argue with you and won't stop until you admit they're right and you're wrong. Give me a fucking break! "Egotistical" doesn't even begin to describe it! It's the same goddamn song and dance and they never change their ways for the better. I cannot wait until Reddit goes the way of the IMDb Message Boards! It needs to go!
I've been watching this channel grow, and its amazing! The video editing style, commentary, and chosen topics all hit the spot perfectly! Great job Visual Venture! As for Reddit, I my self quit the platform, not because of toxicity, but because I believed that Reddit itself was spying on my private information. Any time I would start watching a new Netflix series, or download a new steam game on my pc, almost instantly, despite not opening the app for weeks, I will see that Reddit has sent me a "new" notification, suggesting subreddits I should "check out". Conveniently these notifications fit the exact activities I have recently been doing on the internet. The notifications go as far as to suggest subreddits based on Discord or phone conversation. It honestly made me angry, I've long sinced abandonded the platform.
To be honest with you bro I don’t even think that was even reddit, I just think that’s just social media and your phone in general. It’s no secret that apparently that governments and chickadees are listening in onto your phone and using AI to advertise your products that you like…
I get the same thing with UA-cam. Videos pop up in my home feed based on something I said or did. Visited an old cemetary with my husband recently and we were reading some of the names on the graves, the last one being "Wooten" which my husband said he had never heard before. Very next day I start getting videos in my home feed for a news reporter named Jeremy WOOTEN. Another time I had a DREAM about a song from 70s that I had not heard in many years. Next day, the exact band and song video were in my home feed.
Non seulement ils espionnent mais il y a des gens qui espionnent également ta vie et raconte ta propre vie avec des anonymes pour manipuler de gens 😂😂😂 Mais après c’est ce qu’on appelle des usurpations d’identités et qui existe dans toutes les réseaux sociaux (Twitter, UA-cam, Instagram, etc) 😂😂 ou alors des bots 🤖 et des l’intelligence artificielle 😂😂 Je suis morte de rire car je le sais 😂😂😂 Je ne suis pas étonnée !

Man i thought something was wrong with me, i always felt bad vibes when posting something, always getting negative responses or getting down voted, just deleted my reddit.
It wasn't you helloman. ❤ It's most of the people on Reddit. I swear that site is a beacon for bullies, psychopaths, and sadists that can't get what they want in real life. I erased my account too. 🙏
I got shamed for my insecurities. I hate having a larger chest and it causes me pain but i got jumped by at least 5 people at once harrasing me saying that big chests are attractive and I should get over it AND telling me to stop playing a victim
permabanned on many accounts. not even breaking site rules. I replied to a comment in a "black listed" subreddit and justiceserved banned me, so i had to call it a clown. permabanned for being harassed.
The Reddit communities have way too many rules. You go to upload a perfectly legitimate post to a community, and it ends up being removed. Seems like there's a very very narrow margin of acceptable posts in these communities.
I post my art on Reddit sometimes and it gets very negative. And as an artist who kind of struggles with self esteem, Hate can hurt like a whiplash. I understand it’s the internet, But don’t think I’ve ever gotten as much hate on any app ever than Reddit. And genuinely, I’ve been getting more confident in my artwork despite being tired and stressed. It’s a strange place honestly.
If it helps, you’re not alone in experiencing that on Reddit. I saw someone’s dessert get trashed by practically a whole subreddit just the other day. The dessert wasn’t that bad and I felt sorry for OP getting that response. I’ve seen this behaviour many times on there. I’ve also had my fair share of being unnecessarily attacked and insulted too
The silencing of different opinions is a big concern of mine, not even just on reddit. The thing is that it seems like popular opinions in the real world are made to look less popular online. The herd mentality also can make things feel more isolating. The irony is that the people who mostly talk about how inclusivity is a good thing, also seem to be the same ones who criticise those that deviate.
I've noticed that as well. The "tolerant" crowd are the most INTOLERANT bunch I've ever encountered!! Yeah "inclusive" only if you echo their nonsense and dumb yourself down to a submissive stance toward these emotionally retarded bullies.
"The irony is that the people who mostly talk about how inclusivity is a good thing, also seem to be the same ones who criticise those that deviate." It's not about being inclusive. It's about power and controlling everyone.
i admit this all sounds a bit dogwhistle-y to me. i can’t judge your views at all since i don’t know what they are, but i’ve honestly grown a little wary of people who mention things like a ‘silent majority’ or ‘silencing of opposing opinions’ because of all my experience with extremists. such language has, unfortunately, been adopted by people who think that blatant discrimination is simply a ‘different opinion,’ so you can imagine how hard it is to trust anyone online :/ i’ve gotten bombarded with replies to my youtube comments before (unrelated to gender, mind you) saying that i’ll ‘never be a woman’ and that i’ll ‘always be a man no matter what i do’ because they think i’m a trans woman 💀
@@666_cthulhu I think something to take note of is that people who are pushed away are less likely to be compassionate towards those that do the pushing. With the way things are going I'm less interested in forming a middle ground with those who probably aren't willing to even attempt to move there with me. When it came to reddit in particular, they especially didn't like me siding with JK Rowling because I've seen the abuse she and other gender critical people receive. Either abuse is bad for all people or people are free to say what they want. Unfortunately people only seem to care about what is politically convenient.
I think one of the most important reddit problems that you didn't cover is the psychological affect of downvoting. It discourages unpopular opinions, which is necessary for humans to evolve. If we didn't have unpopular opinions we wouldn't have advancements in science, math, culture, geography etc etc
there's only a hive mind on discord when you're actually being an idiot (most of the time) but there's an automatic hive mind when you give a slightly different opinion on something so yes I agree with you
I got banned from r/techsupport after a guy was saying he was concerned about a noise his computer was making (it was the discord notification) and I asked "Do you have discord?" They mod thought I was trying to get him to talk on discord so he banned me. Simple misunderstanding right? I explain the situation and he's all like "no apology? No unban" Guess reddit mods can never be wrong ¯\_ (ツ) _/¯
I got suspended like 20 times there, now I have just been lurking for months and I am slowly leaving it.. I left all my other social media already. I am much happier. I hate to have had lost so much time on reddit.
One of the comment I see the most on reddit "dunno why you're getting downvoted for that" And it says a lot. I've seen so many people getting downvoted to the ground, not even for voicing an unpopular opinion, but just asking questions or things like that.
Reddit is where people go to let out their anger. People on there are full of anger from their lives, and instead of killing other people, they choose a more "mellow", non-violent way of letting out their rage and anger...and that is through Reddit.
And that would be totally cool if being angry at someone didn't mean censoring their comments and banning them from the subreddit. I couldn't care less if people downvote me or say horrible stuff to me. It's the censorship I truly can't stand and the commies at Reddit are well aware of this.
I go on reddit sometimes. Usually I only go on r/fantasywriters and other little communities like that, usually relating to literature or fantasy. It's actually one of the rare non-toxic corners of reddit Edit: corrected spelling.

i remember asking reddit on how to fix my computer issues got downvoted into oblivion and with comments saying that im dumb for not knowing the "basic stuff" of computer maintenance....
I remember commenting on a post regarding falling manufacturing output , I got downvoted into oblivion too for daring to suggest the company i work for and others I visit regularly in real life are doing really well . Which just proves people are not allowed to say what they really want to .
I got downvoted on reddit for saying that someone was misinterpreting a statistic to fit their narrative and explained what it ACTUALLY means. In terms of sheer toxicity, twitter and reddit are very similar if not equally as toxic (Ive been on both). Twitter is just way funnier and watching drama and arguments go down is actually entertaining af. Redditors just downvote any stuff that doesn’t align with their ideologies. They think their opinions matter that much.
Recently left it due to how idiotic their mods are. I reached out to a domestic violence victim because she was upset and suicidal and because I said “kill” in my message ( I said “please don’t kill your self”) I got IP perma banned for “threatening violence”
@littlebabysicecream666 it’s most likely that someone pressed to report you. That report is usually used to troll someone when in argument or just simple trolling
My run in with a reddit moderator was on a game reddit where someone posted a player teamkilling people who said they had a vaccination, I said that guy was trash, but still respected peoples right to choose if they want a jab or not (body autonomy and all that), after a short debate, a mod came in, called me an anti-vaxxer, and threw in a family tragedy for good measure and banned me. Guess I was the victim of an overzealous mod, and I get to wear that badge with honour
The NASCAR sub instead of talking about the actual racing once got into an argument on if drivers were vaccinated or not and criticized them and called them idiots for disagreeing with some faceless loser on the internet's opinion.
I use reddit only for answers to questions, one time I asked about finding let's play channels with no swearing and I basically got cussed out. This is an example of the type of people on reddit I can't stand.
I have never encountered a reddit user like this probably because I only use it to answer questions and show something I made also I just go on their to look at cool stuff
I have been using playstation consoles ever since the first one came out and I never have had some obscure "hate" towards xbox, this is the first time I have heard of this hate.....though I have met pc users online who seem to absolutely look down on Playstation users, still have no idea why 🤷🏻♀️
I don’t usually comment, but I just had to say that you create videos like a creator with millions of subscribers would. The style and content of your videos is just so polished and professional. I don’t understand how you’re so underrated! If you keep this up, you’re going to be big in no time. Stay grinding 🫶🏼🥰
It seems like at least 95% of redditors are rude. I can't ask a simple question or voice a concern about poor customer service without someone somehow blaming me for the bad experiences that I've had. I thought I could go there for advice.
I found your channel a week ago through the documentary you made on discord. Your videos are very well made, spot on information and beautifully narrated. I'm rooting for your success. all the best. ❤️
Yesterday i shared my analog horror project to the analog_horror subreddit and they called it "shit with no passion". And when i proceed to defend myself they ban me and call me disrespectful. This world is evolving backwards
@@Ontgo-dt9fc yes! And then when i tried defending my project they banned me! And then proceeded to call me a whinny kid in my back... Some people shouldn't be given power on the Internet.
As a former redditor myself from March 2021 to March 2022( so one yr ) i’m ashamed to even have been on there for that long, and boys that I learn a lot on Reddit since. I’m glad I have deleted the app as of now. It’s like the most toxic Fanbase since Facebook and Twitter(even though I’ve never been on Twitter but have browsed on the website before Elon changed it to where you have to sign in to browse ugh). But now that reddit has been deleted permanently from my phone I can focus on the real world instead of the social media world. I mean with the exception of being on UA-cam here, but this is different. Would I ever recommend reddit for anyone to try out? No, hell no in fact, in fact screw all social media sites and apps(except UA-cam because I know it’s not a social media platform I think) Edit: i’m sure if Reddit was a safe haven I would be there longer but it’s just an ugly mess with creeps pedos and weirdos alike(no offense to anyone who still uses Reddit)
i used reddit since 2020 August 12th. Till 2023 October, my account is perma banned now and same for my ip. I got banned for minor reasons or medium reasons where 1 week ban itself is enough but perma ban? the perma ban itself is a very powerful thing, why are they literal perma banning people for minor reasons now, what a clown app.
man im shocked on the fact that you dont have at least 1 million subs you make the videos so professional and entertaining keep up the good work man cant wait for the day you reach 1mil
I once saw Reddit described as "A group of mentally ill and uneducated far left political activists pretending that their thoughts and ideas are popular because the rest of the world has rightfully shunned them" and that's honestly the best description I've ever heard. I've also seen it described as "If Brian Griffin made his own website" and that's pretty good too.

Calling Reddit mods "janitors of the internet" is super unfair to janitors. Janitors are actually helpful
And janitors actually do their damn job without micromanaging people. They do what they've signed up to get paid to do and clean house.
Yeah. Those mods don’t do what I do. I help keep a college campus clean. They help suppress freedom of speech.
and janitors are probably some of the chillest people out there
Janitors are the best at schools
Janitors are great people! I like how they clean up things without getting squeamish and prevent us from getting illnesses and injuries. I always make a point to say hello to them and busboys in restaurants.
Reddit mods are different story. They're not helpful at all. The janitors may deal with nasty stuff on a daily basis, but they're doing something productive with their lives.
Reddit users are extremely disrespectful over the bare minimum. You make a mistake or have a different opinion, you’ll get downvoted to hell. Adults have rational conversations, even if they make mistakes. You can be corrected by normal people and move on with a topic. They drag things out and troll. I’d never want to meet these people in real life.
It was not always the same as it is now. Reddit is degenerating slowly but it was a great place to share your opinion with different people, learning, being immersed in interesting discussions... I'm starting to thinking in abandon it and move on into other communities. I left Twitter (now X). I left Tumblr. I've no problem in quiting when it doesn't give me anything good or interesting.
Tbf most of these people wouldn't even want to speak to you in real life because of the crippling social anxiety they have on them
@@AufWiedersehen550 Most people wouldn’t speak the way they do on Reddit irl because they’re too puss to do it. The internet makes people feel brave.

Reddit even has a subreddit about unpopular opinions. And 90% of it is just popular opinions/well known facts but said in an edgy and pandering way.
I got my post killed on unpopular opinion because they used a automod bot that flagged my post for using a restricted word but didn't specify what the word was in my 400 word post. It wasn't a swear word. The post was clean.
The automod bots email encouraged me to email the mods if I wanted to understand how their filters worked and so I did. I just asked which word the filter caught so I could avoid it in the future. No response, just banned for "spamming the mod".
Dicks
@@jzay1899 Reddit mods amirite
I got my post removed for being a "popular opinion", even though when the opposite is posted most of the comments say "how popular that opinion is, and that the sub is going to shit".
I disagreed with the mod over a couple of back and forths, and then got banned for "sealioning". I wanted to reply that sealioning isn't a catch-all term for when someone disagrees with you without swearing in your face, but they also muted me!

"I think the majority of Reddit just hates everyone". Yeah, pretty much.
I had the nerve to post a comment on Reddit on the subject of how underemployment caused by chronic illness can make it hard to date. The comment was not perfectly neutral and people immediately assumed I was playing the victim.
I was downvoted to oblivion and attacked by like five people, who were all upvoted like crazy. The seething anger and bile was shocking. Wow. My original sin was having chronic illness and chronic pain and not being perfectly stoic about it, I guess.

My biggest annoyance with Redditors is how they always respond with rude pandering or passive aggressive comments like they feel superior to others. Often in an argument over something stupid. And if they can’t find a good counterpoint, they just look at your account and go through your history.

no joke someone unironically called me a "karma whore" i was flabbergasted
Probably because it had been used or overused before. Rookie mistake is not going through a sub's recent history of posts first. In the end though, it is nothing and you didn't deserve a reply like that.
I was in a German sub reddit for "dark humor" comments were almost always just "deleted"and full of people complaining about how" racist, sexist, violent etc.. " the jokes were.
I remember someone made a post about some random private business, they wrote a bible verse on the receipt.

"Don't be a Redditor; be a person who uses Reddit."
This reminded me of the fact that Redditors argue over the validity of other Reddit users' opinions _unironically_ based on their karma/upvote score. Like they unironically point out how much karma they have as a hail-mary attempt to win an argument. (Except they don't see it as a hail-mary attempt, but an actual legitimate way to delegitimize somebody's opinion LMAO.) It's the equivalent of the pathetic/weird non-argument of going into somebody's Facebook profile and posting their profile pic in the comment thread. (But if the "victim" of this act was making fun of somebody else's looks in the first place, then I understand posting _their_ profile pic to give them a taste of their own medicine)
I didn't know Reddit got that bad. I stopped using it some years back. So, redditors are saying your Karma points are a form of credibility? Is this correct?

seriously, i'll go to some post and then comments will say "oh yeah we redditors are all creeps" and it weirds me out because making social media a part of your identity is just... weird. like i don't comment on youtube and think to myself "i'm a youtuber". i had a friend even avoid admitting they looked at reddit because they didn't want to be associated with the reddit image but like, bro its a forum, there's a shit ton of things you could be looking at that ISN'T weird or creepy and i couldn't care less.
@@liben5052 well what you're describing is just a meme and a overused joke on reddit. The joke basically is "reddit is trash and so am I"
@@joel2628 Yep. Its ever since the shitty pewdiepie trend
During the very short time I used reddit (I wanted to see what all the hype was about), I noticed that there's a huge problem with dogpiling in comment sections. It seems that everyone immediately dogpiles onto someone who has a different opinion or argument and mass downvote them without even bothering to think and listen, so it ends up discouraging people who want to share a different point of view from saying anything because of the mob mentality, so comment sections end up being echo chambers and that can easily become very toxic and dangerous.
Yes, HUGE emphasis on the echochamber part. I understand maybe debating someone with different opinions than you, but it's pointless if you're not open minded or receptive to changing your mind. People will dogpile on to someone just to reinforce their own beliefs and get that extra dopamine hit of having their opinions validated. This even goes outside of reddit or social media. It seems like people in general refuse to use their brains capacity to think outside themselves and everything they believe to be true. It does nothing but keeps us and humanity stagnant.
@Brian Babin a downvoted comment is like a corpse once youre bombed with downvotes the rats come feeding off of it by writing some insults to get some free upvotes. what's funny is that everytime i get downvoted i get more downvotes than the person im replying to gets upvoted. it seems like a lot of people just like to downvote downvoted comments for god knows what reason aswell.

Reddit ist great exposure therapy for people that are scared of confrontation lol
People love to claim Twitter as the worst social media, but at least that place allows differentiating opinions.
Reddit is by far the worst platform I’ve ever been on in my life.
Every sub is a hivemind, and the moderators are the saddest of people drunk with power.
agree if you have - karma you get banned from creating commutites anti spam bots its bad
Baki subreddit sucks because they downvote if you speak out against Netflix animation and corporate
For fucking real. They downvote me all the time because I have a slightly different opinion. It’s so fucking tiring
Twitter allows different opinions NOW.
Under the previous ownership it was even worse than reddit.
I've heard about Aaron Swartz. I was doing research on university when I came by that name and went through his Wikipedia page. He fought for what he believed in to the very end, but it's a shame that he died so young.
then a young person dies its usually cause the world failed them and the innocent pays the price its never the guilty ones
i think he would be even more disappointed what he tried build has become and reddit should be better off destroyed entirely but it wont matter if one reddit is gone another one will replace it and the cycle repeats itself
its probably not the reddit itself for what it is but twisted human nature always ruins everything they touch
They probably killed him so they could take over Reddit and turn it into a communist echo chamber.
I can't help but imagine how much he's turning in his grave, seeing what Reddit has become...
he was murdered
@@gforce97No he commit suicide..
Gotta love how redditors just downvote anything they even slightly dislike or disagree with. It's the biggest echo chamber I've ever seen, and I used to use Twitter.
Their mind can be quite fragile lol
That's exactly why no thread on Reddit is upvoted one hundred percent. Hell, when a thread's created at first, then five minutes or later on, it will go down to fifty percent.
smh, Reddit
Don't forget Tiktok
If you use reddit then you have to rethink you're life choices.
As much as I hate twitter, it's a little bit better since Elon took over but it's still pretty bad, it is leaps and bounds better than Reddit.
I had a post come up in my feed one day and it was pro-choice, and it said that babies growing in the womb is r@p3!! I didn't say anything about my opinions on ab0rti0n itself, I just said that that was a crazy comparison and disgusting as someone who has experienced r@p3 and the mod downvoted me, and others, into oblivion and banned me. 😐
This is not even the first time this happened to me, where I said something objectively reasonable and got down-voted to hell.
I saw a post on my college’s subreddit. It was literally just about how people aren’t respectful enough, and are too self-centered, rude, and inconsiderate. I thought it was a true post at least worth consideration. Then in the comments below people were dogpiling him, saying he was an asshole, and acting like an entitled brat who was too demanding of people. All because he said people should respect others more. Bottom line is, Reddit is full of people who have reached levels or stupid I never thought possible.
Tbf, the sub was probably full of college students who felt they were called out. My college exorcice was like that. Couldn’t speak on what really happens on campus unless you wanted to be shunned or harassed. It was like a cult of something.
Imagine a bunch of people think common human decency is to much to ask for? 🙄
The reddit comment section loves to hate others for petty reasons
It’s psychologically damaging when you know beyond the shadow of a doubt that you’re right about something and the wrong information is being spread like a toxin, and you get downvoted to hell and dogpiled on. It’s basically like saying “you’re wrong.” “Yeah man you’re wrong.” “You’re a total asshole and you’re wrong.” But like 500 times. Now imagine that happening all of the time. Who wouldn’t go crazy or depressed over that?
This thing happened with JKR when the video game dropped out, on every sub there were people saying: "She is donating money to anti-trans bills", I always asked them for a link or article proving it and they didn't reply anymore to me, however they were still parroting that JKR donates money to those bills ...
@@EnxhioKotoni Yeah I left Reddit for this reason. People decide not to use real information to back an argument. Often times their argument doesn't even have merit.
I feel like they know this though. They know they're just spewing a popular opinion and can't back it up when questioned, so they either make it your problem, make you out to be an asshole, or they just disappear.
@@AdamGulotta Id like to think like you, but I believe that that's not the case. People just believe whatever they side with without actually verifying the news they parrot.
I haven't left reddit, I'm just more mindful filtering out information. It's still a very good source and probably the last place where you can find some genuine interaction, even tho it's getting harder by day
@@EnxhioKotoni Definitely a good take. And yeah! You can use social media without it being all bad.

When I regularly used reddit I was depressed as fuck. Constantly being dogpiled on for saying something while watching someone else word my exact point in a slightly different way get praise on praise. People immediately attacking me instead of asking for clarification. Often then refusing to apologize for their misunderstanding even when the issue was solely their fault. Mods, as said in the video, deciding they don't like one thing you said and banning you while letting their toxic buddies run absolutely rampant. Incels that talk about how other human beings should be forced to give them intimacy either socially or by government mandate. Talking about murdering, raping, ect out in the open without any real consequences. The bullying, the harassment... people following your every post just to downvote it and silence you because you said one thing they didn't like three months ago.
Fuck reddit and the people that use it.
Redditors love to dogpile
I came across a UA-cam channel some time ago where incels were openly discussing how best to grape women and children and get away with it, how to physically abuse women etc. The channel owner, who has meanwhile been arrested and is to my knowledge in prison (I hope so!!! I only heard about it because he is quite well known), was heavily promoting that. I only came across that channel because a then friend, who I didn't yet know was an incel and a serial killer, had sent me a link and I had no idea what it was about. Anyway, I was so shocked I was physically sick.
Then this channel was being discussed on another channel. People were all saying how great and wonderful the channel owner of the above mentioned channel was. I was the only person who pointed out that he actually promoted extreme violence including grape and murder.
I was being inundated and I do mean inundated with threats, death threats, bullying, personal insults etc for months afterwards...
I'm going through similar now again though not related to that channel but simply because I pointed something out that I have personal experience of, on a thread where everybody was saying what they WANT to believe, though none have the personal experience. Same thing again... weeks and weeks of getting inundated with personal insults, death threats, curses, wishes for the worst...
All on UA-cam, never been on Reddit.
i deleted reddit about an hour ago after 4 years. I realized that people argue about the silliest thing and they emotionally bring people down for just not believing the same things as them. People basically coming for me in mobs just for my innocent opinions has truly taken an emotional toll on me. I'm done. This isn't what the late ceo would've wanted.
Yes Reddit is an echo chamber for CNN basically. Those people are unable to think for themselves. It is truly disgusting and pathetic.
Yeah, and reading through past comments to be like "ah ha! I got you now BIGOT"
Pfff OK
Damn 4 years
It's not that serious - reddit isn't real life.
i just deleted mine 10 minutes ago. I got permanently banned by a gay moderator because i didn’t like short shorts on a male character that he liked. i was expressing what i liked/disliked about a character’s design. but apparently, when a subreddit mod doesn’t like your opinion, they can ban you just like that.
getting banned was the best thing they’ve done for me. now i don’t have to use reddit anymore. Reddit is a toxic crater crawling with disgusting mods who police speech with hypocrite attitudes. Those mods enjoy too much their tiny dose of fake power.
reddit mods fucked up mentality: _If i say it, it’s free speech. if you say it, it’s hate speech._

I just deactivated my account yesterday and this video makes me happy that I did it. I was a part of r/totaldrama (kudos if you remember that show) and my favorite character happens to be the most controversial character of all, that character being Sierra. I initially victimized myself for having the unpopular opinion, but I eventually realized that I was a part of the problem. I would harass anyone who said ANYTHING bad about Sierra and try to defend her with annoying baby talk, and when I was called out for it I would ignore them and keep going. It was hard deactivating my account because I did manage to find a lot of nice people, but it made me so chronically online that I lost my ability to have real-world interactions and engage in real-world activities. Heck, I barely even left my own room because of how much I used it! I feel like I deactivated my account for the better and hope it can help me grow as a person. Thank you for making this!
Props to you for acknowledging your role in the problem. Don't see anyone else admitting to being part of the problem. Good luck on staying off reddit.
it sucks that having a different opinion from the majority will get you attacked.
also, this has to be one the more underrated channels on youtube for sure!

@@ihavenoideawhatimdoingtbh3413 gigachad spotted
you can't even ask a very unharmful and innocent question without being berated by someone who probably never seen another person besides their moms in a month. I was just asking something from a sub because i am new there and the replies are so sarcastic, it oozes smugness through the screen. they think what they know that others don't makes them superior.
100%. I had the same experience a handful of times.
Not a big Reddit page, but I got banned from a page that discusses a YA book series (it's A Court of Thorns and Roses) because basically I disagreed with the mob one too many times. I was trying to point out some flaws in the series and how I would change them (I'm also a writer and find critiquing other works is a good way to keep my own skills sharp). I got the usual "if you hate the series, why are you here" and I said "don't hate the series, it's one of my favorites, but that doesn't make it perfect". Got banned for harassment. All because the mob ganged up on me and I fought back.
It's a microcosm of the larger issue on Reddit, and social media in general, that mob mentality is as prevalent today as it was in the days of witch burning. People ask "how could so many have let that atrocity happen?" and the simple answer is, no one wants to go against the crowd because its a common, inherently human, trait to want to be liked and in our minds, you must think alike to be accepted. And the other reason is that people are afraid to stick out and go against the crowd, are afraid of the mob overtaking them and shutting them down again.
I still think Twitter is worse than Reddit about the mob mentality though, imo. I've seen so many threads where people make inflammatory statements and then say "I'm turning off notifications, so don't even try to argue with me" and they also alter the ability of who can respond to the post *cough* Amber Heard *cough* because they're afraid of having to explain their view point, because they know they can't.
That's so stupid ..." Itchy hears" you can't a decent Convo with idiots
I got permanently banned from r/offmychest because of an innocuous comment I made that wasn't pandering.
- Girl is venting because her bf rudely dismisses her claim of being unknowingly "needle spiked" causing her to black out while she was out drinking at the club while he was at work
- She made it home alone that night despite being "blacked out" and didn't even call her bf to let him know until a day later
- She says she's been r4yped a couple times before over the past 3 years when clubbing while her bf was at work
I just called her out on her bs, stating that her boyfriend was probably tired of her going to the club alone while he's at work especially after she's claimed to be assaulted which could've had an equally sus story and that the relationship isn't going to last. I was downvoted into oblivion saying that I'm victim blaming and that her boyfriend is the one who's a POS for brushing it off and that she should leave him. Then my comment was deleted and I was banned by the moderator who undoubtedly had either a fedora, pink hair, or both.
Reddit is an echo chamber of parotting each other's opinions looking to seek approval and virtual pats on the back from the herd. They are practically NPCs who need other people to tell them what to think and are too scared to form their own opinions. It's not a loss as I've only ever posted a handful of times there because I can't stand the community, especially after growing up on 4chan.
I think a quote by my own mother sums up this video.
“Honey, don’t go on reddit, okay?”
Your mother is too smart
Now that's a good mom.
Just avoid the defaults. The rest of Reddit is civil.

Reddit and twitter are two sides of the same coin. Twitter allows anyone to speak their mind with anonymity, which inevitably leads to toxicity. Whereas reddit uses mob mentality, there is only one opinion aloud on reddit, and if you speak against it, you get silenced, this also leads to toxicity.
Damned if you do, and damned if you dont.
But on Twitter you don't get silenced, so imo it is still better than reddit.
@@nexusanphans3813 Very true, I hate how reddit downvotes both bury your comment and also encourage mob mentality.
On twitter when someone makes a post asking what their favorite vtubers say about them and its just unhinged female vtubers you can say "they wish they'd wish the vtubers would assault them", but on reddit you get banned for glorifying violence.
I’d say both incorporate their own mob mentalities, but Reddit definitely projects ‘echo chamber’ to the extreme with all its sub reddits, silencing and whatnot.
Reddit is literally the worst place on the internet. Mods with power issues. It's basically just a mind hive over there of toxicity.
You can always tell when someone just wants the moral high ground or doesn’t know what they’re talking about when they say “educate yourself.” You can also tell a Reddit mod is just deleting your post for no reason when they say that same phrase.
"Educate yourself" in Reddit speak means INDOCTRINATE YOURSELF to believe the same bull shit they believe.

Reddit is full of losers, 'nuff said. They have zero empathy. I saw them pick on someone that was sick and call them an idiot.
What have we learned:
Social media can turn into a slightly toxic platfform, or something that is filled with toxicity.
i dont think its social media but the source thats humans characteristic itself
social media is basically the result of peoples interaction and its mirrors what people really are
@@Nogardtist if you give them a tool that allows them to interact without the actual need to be physically present for said convo, they'll turn into the hate filled neck beards who try to influence society. Stay off the internet and these people don't bug you too much.

@@Nogardtist I would argue social media does influence people to be worse. In person, people are more compelled to be moral and level headed when interacting with others. Online? There really isn't any risk or punishment besides getting banned. Nobody knows who you are so you can be as bad as possible.
I really hate how everytime the good people who make decisions on what is morally right always dies or gets left to rot in the dark some way or another all the time everytime.
Reddit is awful. Everyone is a mindless lemming who are desperate to dogpile on anyone that has a differing opinion. And what's more typical is that they don't have any opinions of their own and rely heavily on others to spoon feed them opinions. It's all about that sweet karma.
Reddit users have been awfully vindictive and malicious. I've got nothing but the past two elections to thank, as to how rampant the toxicity levels have gotten on that platform. Just in this entire year alone rather, past couple months, I've had the following happen to me:
I would get brigaded for expressing honest, non-instigating opinions. Downvote parades would happen, I'd get confrontational users who'd swipe at me with a snarky remark then blocking me after.
I've gotten accounts banned because the hate from them was so great, that even when my account wasn't violating any rules, there must've been alts or a small band of people that hated me so badly to orchestrate a ban on my account. They've even gotten my throwaway account banned too and it only has one post to it, where I post for mental health reasons.
I keep coming back, just to show them that I will not be intimidated by their childish antics to stop using a platform. A platform that they feel that they own because what, they farm for karma? That they feel like their tenure staggers mine and other users in my position and that their say is law? No, to me, they're just names on a freaking platform. Nothing more.
My advice for people who use reddit - avoid opinion-based subreddits at all costs. Nothing good can come from them, a lot of them are harbored by tense and edgy individuals who'll spin everything and anything out of context to make themselves seem righteous in the end.
Avoid politically-based subreddits too if you can help it. Avoid even venting subreddits too which is hard to do because some days you want to vent. But even that is filtered because everyone practically judges your vent on whether or not it's valid, when it doesn't matter because all you want to do is vent.
Reddit is just full of self-righteous, self-patting, no-life, arm-chair keyboard warriors with too much damn time on their hands to do what they do.
That sounds an awful lot like UA-cam commenters
In my experience, it really just depends on the day. I've had spirited discussions with people on there about politics and nothing happened (other than fuming on both sides I imagine).

I think one of the worst things about Reddit is when someone gets offended at your post or comment and decides to stalk your profile in order to find something you posted that will help them will the argument against you. It's so sad and pathetic.
The sad thing is I actually did this once and upon the realization I deeply regret it
Reddit is just one of those apps that really pisses me off. Especially when it comes down to politics. Anybody who identifies as a Republican on that app is struck down almost instantly. Sure I may not agree with the Democrats, but I’m always willing to understand their opinions no matter how much I disagree. Reddit is full of crybabies and asocial people. I feel that everybody is entitled to voice their opinions, even if you may not agree with the other person, but at least be respectful.
That's my main complaint against Reddit, especially the NASCAR sub.
Good point but due to how vast it is surely there are subreddits for republicans or right leaning individuals

•r/NeutralPolitics

Ils sont déprimés et n’ont pas de vie ! Ils inventent des maladies sur des gens qu’ils n’aiment pas du moment que tu n’as pas les mêmes idéologies qu’eux ! Tellement CONS 😂😂
Entourez vous des gens positives 🤩🤩
Reddit is the censorship sewer I’ve always heard Twitter was.
A dark web user once compared Reddit to the dark web, saying it's practically the surface version.
That alien mascot has seen some shit, and still smiles to this day. I salute their resilience.
Oui beaucoup de gens et des hackers qui viennent du dark web utilisent cette plateforme
These documentaries you put out are really good. Looking forward to more.
Thanks Liz! Thanks for always supporting from the start as well
Honestly, if I ever found out someone is an active Reddit mod I'd never hire them because there's a very high chance they're going to be toxic, if not naturally then by contact with excessive toxicity. That place can turn good people rotten.
nah it doesnt turn good people rotten it just attracts more rotten people
Gosh I couldn't picture anything worse. Genuine shivers at the thought of working with a Reddit mod in real life.
Yep, don’t hire them. i wouldn’t.
1 year late but some Reddit mods are good but looks like many moderators like to go on a power trip.
@@imanepink It’s still concerning. I wouldn’t even date or befriend anyone with a Reddit account because I had such a bad experience.
Reddit has been seriously ruining my mental health. At first I used it for advice because I had no one to talk to. It was also very good for venting. But now, people on Reddit just…hate everyone. I just don’t understand this, man. I’m 17, and I started Reddit at 16. It’s been a year. I just hate this platform so much and it’s ruining my worldview. I need to quit this platform.
I'm certain the majority of people on there just want to be against others. I've used reddit for a long time now and it does have a negative impact on your mental health with how toxic people are for seemingly no reason.
It is a sad place, full of sad people who want you to be sad as well.
I did a similar thing and eventually just deleted my account & app on my devices. what I learned is, no matter how good your intentions are, if you dont construct your paragraphs in way you dont degrade yourself or beat yourself up over something, chances are you're gonna get hate/negative comments. Idk if its psychological but I do notice posts about hating themselves gets the most positive comments but posts about your accomplishments or how proud you are of this or you failed at something you know you can actually thrive in bc youre aware of your potential/intelligence/skills, youre gonna get hate & criticized.
ChatGPT have been SO MUCH useful to me than seeking insights from strangers who projects their hatred to the world and their lives on the internet. Reddit is def not for everybody especially if youre not the toxic type who thrives on craving upvotes just to get by in life.
Je connais par cœur les manipulations donc cela ne va pas m’affecter 😂🤣😂
reddit has destroyed my mental health. Hanging around meme subreddits has gotten me harassed for being lgbtq. Hanging around lgbtq subreddits has gotten me insulted for not believing in communism, being called a fascist enabler because i'd consider myself a libertarian (freedom of speech, bodily autonomy and stuff) with some social values (regulations, helping the poor, universal healthcare with the option of going private etc.). Hell even going onto a subreddit as seemingly innocent as r/cats you will see people calling the owner an abuser for not having spayed their cat yet. I remember a 15 year old kid being berated because he asked reddit for help with his injured cat that his parents refused to take to the vet
I really enjoy when we see ourselves in the mirror of a social media app like reddit or twitter and our reactions as a society to eachother makes us so sick of our own stupidity ..that we prefer to break it and run away😂 , this is actually helpfull for some self awarness.

You forgot to mention the Pedo community and the acknowledge of Mods basically indicating: "We found nothing wrong with this pedo material".
Wait there's pedo subs on Reddit!? How disgusting! 🤢🤮
Reddit is pathetic.
That has happened to me on UA-cam as well though. I reported a channel where the channel owner and everybody in the comments section were promoting grape and murder of women and children, and discussing how best to abuse women and children and get away with it. UA-cam moderators found "nothing wrong with it". The channel continued until the channel owner ended up in prison but only for his political opinion, not for being a pedo.
@@LittleKitty22Tout à fait d’accord même dans UA-cam aussi avec les chaînes Pseudoscience aussi et les conneries 😂😂
@@Lolcoca Absolutely, there's a lot of that around on UA-cam!
The Redditors themselves are just rude and just add to the cancer of this toxic shitty website. They constantly argue with you and won't stop until you admit they're right and you're wrong. Give me a fucking break! "Egotistical" doesn't even begin to describe it! It's the same goddamn song and dance and they never change their ways for the better. I cannot wait until Reddit goes the way of the IMDb Message Boards! It needs to go!
Most underrated channel I have ever seen. Keep up the great work!
Thank you Carrola! Glad you're here!
your correct
I've been watching this channel grow, and its amazing! The video editing style, commentary, and chosen topics all hit the spot perfectly! Great job Visual Venture!
As for Reddit, I my self quit the platform, not because of toxicity, but because I believed that Reddit itself was spying on my private information.
Any time I would start watching a new Netflix series, or download a new steam game on my pc, almost instantly, despite not opening the app for weeks, I will see that Reddit has sent me a "new" notification, suggesting subreddits I should "check out". Conveniently these notifications fit the exact activities I have recently been doing on the internet. The notifications go as far as to suggest subreddits based on Discord or phone conversation.
It honestly made me angry, I've long sinced abandonded the platform.
Thanks for sticking around 🙏🏽. Always appreciate you. And glad you recognized its toxicity
To be honest with you bro I don’t even think that was even reddit, I just think that’s just social media and your phone in general. It’s no secret that apparently that governments and chickadees are listening in onto your phone and using AI to advertise your products that you like…
I get the same thing with UA-cam. Videos pop up in my home feed based on something I said or did. Visited an old cemetary with my husband recently and we were reading some of the names on the graves, the last one being "Wooten" which my husband said he had never heard before. Very next day I start getting videos in my home feed for a news reporter named Jeremy WOOTEN. Another time I had a DREAM about a song from 70s that I had not heard in many years. Next day, the exact band and song video were in my home feed.
@@reesedaniel5835 well, the dream is 100% just a coincidence, because mind reading doesn't exist yet, at least not in a meaningful way
Non seulement ils espionnent mais il y a des gens qui espionnent également ta vie et raconte ta propre vie avec des anonymes pour manipuler de gens 😂😂😂 Mais après c’est ce qu’on appelle des usurpations d’identités et qui existe dans toutes les réseaux sociaux (Twitter, UA-cam, Instagram, etc) 😂😂 ou alors des bots 🤖 et des l’intelligence artificielle 😂😂
Je suis morte de rire car je le sais 😂😂😂 Je ne suis pas étonnée ! Il ne faut pas non plus être parano mais pas naïve !
Man i thought something was wrong with me, i always felt bad vibes when posting something, always getting negative responses or getting down voted, just deleted my reddit.
It wasn't you helloman. ❤ It's most of the people on Reddit. I swear that site is a beacon for bullies, psychopaths, and sadists that can't get what they want in real life. I erased my account too. 🙏
Tu as raison ! Ils sont cons 😂😂
An excellent video! Thanks for raising awareness!
Thanks for taking part my friend
hey net
I got shamed for my insecurities. I hate having a larger chest and it causes me pain but i got jumped by at least 5 people at once harrasing me saying that big chests are attractive and I should get over it AND telling me to stop playing a victim
Sorry you went through that. Chest pain from that is a real thing!
That's called envy, they were envious of you so they decided to bully you for it
If you have negative karma on reddit you're probably a good person in real life
if you get downvoted every time that means you can be trusted
That's me
permabanned on many accounts. not even breaking site rules. I replied to a comment in a "black listed" subreddit and justiceserved banned me, so i had to call it a clown. permabanned for being harassed.
The mods are more oppressive than Hitler and Stalin combined
-78 karma back when I used it lmao
The worst part is that when you call out the community for their bullying you get treated like the bad guy and blocked.
Yeah, i’ve been there.
@@Ontgo-dt9fc Not like me
Oui ! Le parfait secte
The Reddit communities have way too many rules. You go to upload a perfectly legitimate post to a community, and it ends up being removed. Seems like there's a very very narrow margin of acceptable posts in these communities.
and the rules are so vague for the specific purpose of the mods misinterpreting their own vague rules to ban people for "breaking the rules"
I post my art on Reddit sometimes and it gets very negative. And as an artist who kind of struggles with self esteem, Hate can hurt like a whiplash. I understand it’s the internet, But don’t think I’ve ever gotten as much hate on any app ever than Reddit.
And genuinely, I’ve been getting more confident in my artwork despite being tired and stressed. It’s a strange place honestly.
If it helps, you’re not alone in experiencing that on Reddit. I saw someone’s dessert get trashed by practically a whole subreddit just the other day. The dessert wasn’t that bad and I felt sorry for OP getting that response. I’ve seen this behaviour many times on there. I’ve also had my fair share of being unnecessarily attacked and insulted too
The silencing of different opinions is a big concern of mine, not even just on reddit. The thing is that it seems like popular opinions in the real world are made to look less popular online. The herd mentality also can make things feel more isolating. The irony is that the people who mostly talk about how inclusivity is a good thing, also seem to be the same ones who criticise those that deviate.
I've noticed that as well. The "tolerant" crowd are the most INTOLERANT bunch I've ever encountered!! Yeah "inclusive" only if you echo their nonsense and dumb yourself down to a submissive stance toward these emotionally retarded bullies.
"The irony is that the people who mostly talk about how inclusivity is a good thing, also seem to be the same ones who criticise those that deviate." It's not about being inclusive. It's about power and controlling everyone.
i admit this all sounds a bit dogwhistle-y to me. i can’t judge your views at all since i don’t know what they are, but i’ve honestly grown a little wary of people who mention things like a ‘silent majority’ or ‘silencing of opposing opinions’ because of all my experience with extremists.
such language has, unfortunately, been adopted by people who think that blatant discrimination is simply a ‘different opinion,’ so you can imagine how hard it is to trust anyone online :/
i’ve gotten bombarded with replies to my youtube comments before (unrelated to gender, mind you) saying that i’ll ‘never be a woman’ and that i’ll ‘always be a man no matter what i do’ because they think i’m a trans woman 💀
@@666_cthulhu I think something to take note of is that people who are pushed away are less likely to be compassionate towards those that do the pushing. With the way things are going I'm less interested in forming a middle ground with those who probably aren't willing to even attempt to move there with me. When it came to reddit in particular, they especially didn't like me siding with JK Rowling because I've seen the abuse she and other gender critical people receive. Either abuse is bad for all people or people are free to say what they want. Unfortunately people only seem to care about what is politically convenient.
They want diversity of appearance, not diversity of thought. Bcos they know their agenda is gonna fail if other ppl question it.
Unpopular opinion is one of the most useless subreddit ever
r/unpopularopinion is strange but funny, and that's where you can laugh at.
I think one of the most important reddit problems that you didn't cover is the psychological affect of downvoting. It discourages unpopular opinions, which is necessary for humans to evolve. If we didn't have unpopular opinions we wouldn't have advancements in science, math, culture, geography etc etc
so true
@vxo4436 you'd be surprised, every conversion plays a role in someone's life. How they think and react.
getting banned for saying "chicken sandwich" is like getting in jail for drawing a doodle on an abandoned building
Reddit is just humanity on a computer
Still better than metaverse lolll
@@endergirl7759 sure, and getting AIDS is better than having a brain aneurysm
*hell
Correction. The worst of humanity. The best of humanity don't go on Reddit.
@@rommix0 not rlly
I have never received as much hate anywhere else on the internet like I have reddit.
Same
same
same here dude.
Same here, mate.
Not just mean comments either, I've had people go to the trouble to personally harass me.
reddit mods are 10000x worse than discord mods
Ikr
YES THEY ARE! i agree.
Agreed
there's only a hive mind on discord when you're actually being an idiot (most of the time) but there's an automatic hive mind when you give a slightly different opinion on something so yes I agree with you
I got banned from r/techsupport after a guy was saying he was concerned about a noise his computer was making (it was the discord notification) and I asked "Do you have discord?"
They mod thought I was trying to get him to talk on discord so he banned me. Simple misunderstanding right? I explain the situation and he's all like "no apology? No unban"
Guess reddit mods can never be wrong ¯\_ (ツ) _/¯
I got suspended like 20 times there, now I have just been lurking for months and I am slowly leaving it.. I left all my other social media already. I am much happier. I hate to have had lost so much time on reddit.
One of the comment I see the most on reddit "dunno why you're getting downvoted for that"
And it says a lot. I've seen so many people getting downvoted to the ground, not even for voicing an unpopular opinion, but just asking questions or things like that.
Reddit is where people go to let out their anger.
People on there are full of anger from their lives, and instead of killing other people, they choose a more "mellow", non-violent way of letting out their rage and anger...and that is through Reddit.
And that would be totally cool if being angry at someone didn't mean censoring their comments and banning them from the subreddit. I couldn't care less if people downvote me or say horrible stuff to me. It's the censorship I truly can't stand and the commies at Reddit are well aware of this.
Car ils sont déprimés 😂😂 et ils ont pas de vie tout simplement 😂😂
I go on reddit sometimes. Usually I only go on r/fantasywriters and other little communities like that, usually relating to literature or fantasy. It's actually one of the rare non-toxic corners of reddit
Edit: corrected spelling.
Guess depend what subreddit u attend
There are _many_ civil corners of Reddit: the interest subs.

i remember asking reddit on how to fix my computer issues
got downvoted into oblivion and with comments saying that im dumb for not knowing the "basic stuff" of computer maintenance....
I remember commenting on a post regarding falling manufacturing output , I got downvoted into oblivion too for daring to suggest the company i work for and others I visit regularly in real life are doing really well .
Which just proves people are not allowed to say what they really want to .
Elitists.
I got downvoted on reddit for saying that someone was misinterpreting a statistic to fit their narrative and explained what it ACTUALLY means. In terms of sheer toxicity, twitter and reddit are very similar if not equally as toxic (Ive been on both). Twitter is just way funnier and watching drama and arguments go down is actually entertaining af. Redditors just downvote any stuff that doesn’t align with their ideologies. They think their opinions matter that much.
Recently left it due to how idiotic their mods are. I reached out to a domestic violence victim because she was upset and suicidal and because I said “kill” in my message ( I said “please don’t kill your self”) I got IP perma banned for “threatening violence”
Wow lol reddit is terrible now
@littlebabysicecream666 it’s most likely that someone pressed to report you. That report is usually used to troll someone when in argument or just simple trolling
My run in with a reddit moderator was on a game reddit where someone posted a player teamkilling people who said they had a vaccination, I said that guy was trash, but still respected peoples right to choose if they want a jab or not (body autonomy and all that), after a short debate, a mod came in, called me an anti-vaxxer, and threw in a family tragedy for good measure and banned me.
Guess I was the victim of an overzealous mod, and I get to wear that badge with honour
There's no nuance to Reddit. You're either hard right or hard wrong, freedom of speech my ass
@@scrittle 😂😂 it's not allow . It's a private company
@@scrittle I will allow in my forum. How one can have a dialogue and they keep banning for small - simple shit .
"family tragedy" that very likely might had never happened.
The NASCAR sub instead of talking about the actual racing once got into an argument on if drivers were vaccinated or not and criticized them and called them idiots for disagreeing with some faceless loser on the internet's opinion.
Ignore those immature Reddit trolls; your content is incredible! You deserve more subscribers 🙃
they just can't handle criticism, because of all the time they've spent in that echo chamber of a platform we mentally stable people call Reddit
I use reddit only for answers to questions, one time I asked about finding let's play channels with no swearing and I basically got cussed out. This is an example of the type of people on reddit I can't stand.
fr bro i asked why playstation fans hates on xbox and all i got was hate and i decided to never use reddit again
I have never encountered a reddit user like this probably because I only use it to answer questions and show something I made also I just go on their to look at cool stuff
I have been using playstation consoles ever since the first one came out and I never have had some obscure "hate" towards xbox, this is the first time I have heard of this hate.....though I have met pc users online who seem to absolutely look down on Playstation users, still have no idea why 🤷🏻♀️
I don’t usually comment, but I just had to say that you create videos like a creator with millions of subscribers would. The style and content of your videos is just so polished and professional. I don’t understand how you’re so underrated! If you keep this up, you’re going to be big in no time. Stay grinding 🫶🏼🥰
Yoo thank you for taking the time to say that. Absolutely made my day
@@VisualVenture I’m so glad!! I just had to give credit where it was due!! ☺️
It seems like at least 95% of redditors are rude. I can't ask a simple question or voice a concern about poor customer service without someone somehow blaming me for the bad experiences that I've had. I thought I could go there for advice.
I experienced this too. They jump straight to blaming you without seeking any clarification or anything. Very immature attitudes on there…
Lmaooo is that king cobra?
I found your channel a week ago through the documentary you made on discord. Your videos are very well made, spot on information and beautifully narrated. I'm rooting for your success. all the best. ❤️
thanks a ton!!
Every subreddit I’ve ever been on if you give any critique people just downvote you to oblivion. Reddit is the biggest echo chamber I’ve ever seen.
Yesterday i shared my analog horror project to the analog_horror subreddit and they called it "shit with no passion".
And when i proceed to defend myself they ban me and call me disrespectful. This world is evolving backwards
Yep. They insult you then try to make you seem like the problem.
@@Ontgo-dt9fc yes! And then when i tried defending my project they banned me! And then proceeded to call me a whinny kid in my back...
Some people shouldn't be given power on the Internet.
As a former redditor myself from March 2021 to March 2022( so one yr ) i’m ashamed to even have been on there for that long, and boys that I learn a lot on Reddit since. I’m glad I have deleted the app as of now. It’s like the most toxic Fanbase since Facebook and Twitter(even though I’ve never been on Twitter but have browsed on the website before Elon changed it to where you have to sign in to browse ugh). But now that reddit has been deleted permanently from my phone I can focus on the real world instead of the social media world. I mean with the exception of being on UA-cam here, but this is different. Would I ever recommend reddit for anyone to try out? No, hell no in fact, in fact screw all social media sites and apps(except UA-cam because I know it’s not a social media platform I think)
Edit: i’m sure if Reddit was a safe haven I would be there longer but it’s just an ugly mess with creeps pedos and weirdos alike(no offense to anyone who still uses Reddit)
i used reddit since 2020 August 12th. Till 2023 October, my account is perma banned now and same for my ip. I got banned for minor reasons or medium reasons where 1 week ban itself is enough but perma ban? the perma ban itself is a very powerful thing, why are they literal perma banning people for minor reasons now, what a clown app.
I don't use reddit often, i use it sometimes for whatever. And it's almost always toxic
man im shocked on the fact that you dont have at least 1 million subs you make the videos so professional and entertaining keep up the good work man cant wait for the day you reach 1mil
Thank you 🙏🏽. Hope you’ll stick around till then 😁
@@VisualVenture i will
@@VisualVenture Your like leminno
I once saw Reddit described as "A group of mentally ill and uneducated far left political activists pretending that their thoughts and ideas are popular because the rest of the world has rightfully shunned them" and that's honestly the best description I've ever heard.
I've also seen it described as "If Brian Griffin made his own website" and that's pretty good too.
Very true, they're literally the atheist versions of religious fanatics, but they're not aware of it, which is very funny lol 😂
