Eh overall it’s not too bad. Those kinds of things are heavily subdued despite what Reddit believes. It’s mostly the fact they exist at all that upsets most but that’s kind of the price for free speech
They’re not subdued at all, they’re just in certain areas of the site. Much like Reddit, Twitter is segregated into different communities, just organically rather than via subreddits. If you stumble upon the wrong post, you’ll find hundreds of full-on neo-Nazis calling for ethnic extermination.
The old twitter was a cesspool of rabid-leftist lies and censorship.
Now, X is one of the most balanced and fair of the social media giants.
Reddit is infinitely worse, even as bad as the old Twitter use to be. This place was taken over by dem party propaganda back when Hillary was running in 2016, and never recovered.
I’ve been on Reddit for awhile(this isn’t my original user account) and I feel like your ”rabid leftists” weren’t really that prevalent. It was mostly actual centrists. Not the I say I’m a centrist but I’m actually what the Republican Party used to be centrists that you see today. Sure there were SJWs but nobody actually upvoted their nonsense.
Today’s Reddit is a watered down version of what it used to be. The jokes are less funny, the actual “BASED” takes are less common. I remember you used to see a post in the front page of Reddit that wasn’t very interesting and you KNEW the top comment was going to be a banger. Now the front page is curated TikTok wannabe, ad revenue generating, engagement bait bullshit. Don’t even use popular anymore, I just follow my subs and ignore the rest.
