reddit was amazing a decade ago. dunno what all happened but it became a cesspool of toxicity and abuse of power that i was just waiting for another alternative to come along and save us OGs from.

    Reddit's always been a mixed bag of good stuff and cesspool toxicity. A decade ago it had subs like r/jailbait and r/coontown.

    Nostalgia remembers the good stuff and forgets the shit.

    It's not that I don't remember all the trolling that has happened since the Internet's inception (I was there) it's just that it used to have its time and place and people used to respect that, Reddit included. If you didn't want to see the toxicity, you just didn't visit those subs. It only started bleeding into everything else within the recent past.
