It’s kind of well-known and a long-running meme at this point that Redditors have a superiority complex about other platforms and think only theirs is the most “intelligent” and “rational” platform. It dates back to when it was mostly controlled by right-libertarian fedora-wearing raging atheist types.
Did you just log on to the Internet for the first time yesterday?
Those were the good ol days. Now it’s controlled by maga. It’s getting closer to twitter every day, soon it will just be another republican propaganda site
What the fuck are you people on about? Have you been on reddit? Go look at r/all right now, or any other time. You have to go to r/conservative to find magats, and even there you’ll find skeptical sentiments.
I used reddit long before the /r/thedonald showed up. Before /r/atheism became a default sub, which was terrible for the community of that sub. It became meme infested and caused /r/trueatheism to be made for sharing stories about religion intolerance from politicians, educators and employers. At a certain point, I started wholesale blocking any major sub and power user to reclaim some usability, but the API change signaled to me it wasn’t worth the effort anymore.
What other examples of bullshit can you give us?

Have you ever heard a twitter user talk about reddit? They all hate each other.
People in this thread are perfect examples of that. They hate reddit so much they have to talk shit about it, regardless of reality.
A lot of lemmy users are ex reddit users and have reason they switched. I switched because it started looking more and more like twitter.
As long as you recognize it’s a meme and not reality, I’ll forgive that ridiculous generalization.
