I have been on reddit for just about 12 years now. Something I’ve noticed over time is just how hateful the place has become. A complete outrage machine. Every single sub became filled with it. I’ve filtered so many subreddits over the last few years, it’s insane. I don’t know enough about this place to be sure, but I do hope it doesn’t become the same type of echo chamber of anger.
Being able to click the activity on a post and see who’s boosting it is very helpful. When someone is saying really diabolical, you can block not just them but all the others that like 'em. It’s some work, but definitely feels a bit empowering.
