It is objectively a lot more male than Reddit or other social media. Reddit has many issues, but lack of women is not one of them.

The fucking politics oh my god, in every fucking community good lord. No way to filter it out either.

    It takes patience but you can block all the political communities. Once you do that you just have to block a dozen or so super users who spam the other communities with political content.

    That's the thing that drives me crazy- communities that really should be non-political like "Pictures" or idk "Cars" are full of posts like "Heres what Trumps reversal of EPA regulations means for the future of EVs." Like I get it Trumps bad but can't you contain that discussion to the 5000 communities devoted to politics?

    No, they can't. They are 'raising awareness' and they think anyone who doesn't want to politize everything and be angry about Trump 24/7 is 'apolitical' and/or a Trump supporter.

    There is no middle ground with folks like that, let alone separation of powers. I had someone argue with me that taking a dump is a political act because you use a toilet and toilet paper when you do it and those are 'political goods'. And you better buy TP from a pro LGBT+ TP company otherwise you are 'part of the problem'.

    I got banned from reddit for the first time over posting a picture of my cat sitting on my porch. Why? Because outdoor cats are violent psychopaths murdering cute innocent birds and I was a clearly pro-bird murder.
