Yeah, there was a time when that was true, but Reddit’s been heavily compromised for…I dunno, at least a decade now. Pretty much every public forum becomes compromised after it reaches a certain size, and now with The Power of AI, it’s economical to compromise smaller and smaller forums, too, and it’s harder and harder to properly calibrate your bullshit detector. yayy…

There are still some great specialized nerd forums out there though. Relevant XKCD: xkcd.com/1603/
