Why You Need to Stop Using Reddit, Plus Reddit Privacy Tips

The article mentions Reddit being censored and lame, but that is just a reflection of the specific subs that one subscribes to. My rule of thumb is based on HN: If a sub has significantly more upvotes for it's top posts than HN does, then it's too big to be a community that I enjoy.

I don't know why, but some people assume these services are being used as a utility rather than a community. So they make their case based on stats and data, and completely ignore the relational aspect of being part of it.

You can spit facts & figures all day long, but unless you make it clear why your own community is intentionally betraying you, it's all noise.

4. Reddit is lame.

Thanks mom. Carry on.
