I think a large part of my dissatisfaction with reddit was that I am getting older but the average redditor is getting younger. That and the culture of outrage and anger that you mention just don't make it such a nice place to be any more. If you find yourself holding the "wrong" opinion (or you have the "right" opinion but your words are misinterpreted), forget any discussion - let's go straight to the downvotes and death threats.

Don't get me wrong, there is still some good stuff there. But it's swamped by a toxic ocean of shitposting as everyone tries to outfunny, outmeme, and outvitriol each other.
