Most of the main page ones are hot garbage, but there's plenty of smaller subreddits that have fantastic communities. If you just stick to those and avoid everything else, Reddit's probably one of the best social media sites that currently exist.

The main problem I have with reddit is that once a community is established, it's incredibly hard to make alternates thrive. The main subreddit for visual novels has a mostly-absent head mod that occasionally comes back and wreaks havoc every few months, and despite best efforts, the next most populated subreddit for visual novels is relatively dead. Because it has a harder to search for name, and the problems with the head mod aren't immediately apparent (because he's usually not there).

Guy mass bans active users for not agreeing with his "Japanese readers are inherently superior" mentality, for disagreeing with him on twitter, for posting once on the alternate subreddit ever, etc. It's just a shitty stalemate where VN discussion remains fragmented because the head mod system is bullshit.

He's probably eventually going to say something ultra racist and get removed by admins (he's already racebaited by accusing others of being racist against him because he's black, but he's posted pics showing he's super pasty white boy before), but that could be years. It just sucks how a community formed during his absence and he comes back and intentionally sows chaos.
