"Reddit" as a derogatory gets misapplied to things which are objectively "Twitter", people are just too connected to the idea that twitter is/was at any point cool (hexbear.net)

twitter is shorter and more pointed smugness like a tiktok, while reddit is a a longwinded, slow burn smugness like a 70s movie

    Also people use their real human names and faces on twitter, and real human names and faces were never meant to be on the internet and putting them here anyway can only bring strife.

    It really does nothing to regulate/calm discourse like many people claimed/hoped it would. But you get cults of personality and more mobbing and targetted/personal attacks so it's impossible to say whether it's good or bad.
