This is what happens when your userbase is self-absorbed techbros without a shred of empathy
I honestly feel that reddit is more filled with wannabe techbros, failsons, faildaughters and rental leeches. I always get the vibe the worst kind of people post actively on reddit for affirmation and engagement within an anonymous space that has very little oversight. There are exceptions of course, certain fandom reddits are nice and all, but I truly feel reddit is where midling banal evil or inept individuals go to exist outside of whatever social environment they have within work and likely little else.
This is correct. Go on any tech-hobbyist subreddit and half the posts are objectively wrong or bad advice regarding anything technical. Maybe techbros lurk or something, but they're definitely not actually posting much.
It doesn't even make sense. Is the mother not allowed to remarry in this house? It seemed like it was just a rule to prevent her from subletting it or renting out a room or something. If it was specifically an anti-Steve rule then Adam should have been clearer about that and not been a little legalese soy boy.

I think all the actual techbros are on hacker news or blind or 4chan
hackernews has been wannabes for ages, and 4chan even longer
Hacker news is such a weird place. Maybe it's because I don't go on it enough but it seems like everybody there has absolutely no personality
Every comment seems so devoid of life and energy, regardless of what opinion or statement it holds
hackernews personalities:
irrelevant technical nitpick, usually about the website or title rather than the contents(60%)
irrelevant technical soapbox (traditionally ~40%, but these are increasingly being replaced by the even worse irrelevant political soapboxers)
actual hacker in the old-school sense / artist who does things with code (0.1%)
notable industry expert with long career who showed up in the comments because their work was being discussed (0.1%)
deleted by creator
I had never heard of blind before so I just checked it out. It looks like people sign posts with their company and salary. And here's a comment:
:jesus-christ:
literally what would you do with $3M you couldn't with $1M
Bigger e-penis
they're still on irc...
also they periodically strugle with the most basic of math
Anyone who pays a corporation real money to give someone a pixelated sprite by their post is devoid of the capacity for rational thought

which is also very restrictive for no reason
