    This has been the final nail in the coffin for Reddit for me I think, and I’ve been using it since digg. All in all a net positive to quit it, but the blatant bloodthirsty propaganda and Russophobia is getting to me

      Same, it's really been a massive eye opener for me - can't even open it anymore.

      To be fair I've basically only been perusing it out of habit for the past year or so. Really happy to have Hexbear to replace it for my 15 minutes of scrolling a day

        Yeah i was doing it out of habit until like 4 years ago I genuinely couldn’t tell what was real engagement and what was just the algorithm/cia/advertisers, so I made a conscious choice to only use the site for niche interests. But now it’s inescapable. I’m seeing idiotic bloodthirsty redditors talking about how the average Russian is dirty and needs to pay in subreddits about fucking music equipment or small video games

          Yep, it's truly painful to see. The sinophobia was what really started me on it, I had the same experience - small niche subs where people just couldn't post anything without somehow sliding in some racist China shit. It's everywhere. Apparently America is just a racist ass culture with the sights swinging around wildly, it's hard to even keep up with who the new target of racist hatred is any given week.

          Be nice if we could just lock that hate in on the bougies, then we might get somewhere.

      Same. It's unfortunately a great resource for answering niche questions and stuff. I guess one could still use it for that without engaging in any kind of community there.

      Yeah, it's genuinely been quite shocking to see... there's little coverage of actual stuff on the ground, endless parroting of the American MSM narrative, and a wild bloodlust. I mean, shit. :sadness-abysmal:
