It's kinda like religion.
There's terrible extremists on every side.

It's one of the top places to go for porn, They have a sub-reddit for almost every kind of fetish. If you want to pictures where the sun filters through a dress and makes it transparent, they have that. If you want to find Power Rangers based pornography, There is a subreddit for that too[sp]that I moderate[/sp]
Why people hate it? I guess because all the jokes get repetitive and maybe only 1/1000 posts are actually witty and funny.
Now watch as the prices of Fancy Fedoras go sky high after this.

Because the shit subreddits ruin it as a whole for many people. I find it is genuinely useful for collecting news articles and the like throughout the interwebs, but most can't see past the many repost boards.

Facepunch in general has such a huge problem with Reddit, I honestly don't get it. Did you guys just browse r/atheism and go "Yup, Reddit sucks." If you decide to spend more than 10 seconds you'll find loads of good subreddits and good content in general. Don't just hang around in the defaults, most people unsubscribe to those for the same reason; they suck.

Except they're not the default subreddits, so you have to seek them out and subscribe for them to be a problem.

This is a pretty good summary of the issues of reddit, Minus the Child pornography.
Hope you guys realize reddit is not much less allergic to memes than Facepunch is.
Why can't every site just do their own thing instead of constantly bashing other sites? It's like a game of rock-paper-scissors except with the entire internet, nobody wins, and it never ends.

"if it's not on the frontpage it's not a part of the website"
????
but okay, r/funny, r/wtf and r/todayilearned are pieces of shit too
happy?
I hope this is an April Fools joke. I don't want my favorite game sponsoring a website that has active boards dedicated to child pornography, pictures of dead women and children, beating women, and pony porn that are officially allowed.
For the bad rap that 4chan gets, child porn and gore are both grounds for a permanent ban and your info being sent to the FBI. Reddit welcomes that stuff with open arms under the bullshit guide of supporting freedom of speech.
Fuck that place.

Just because you have to look for it doesn't change the fact that it's there, the people in charge know about it, and actively do nothing about it.

I dunno about the others, but I know that one got shut down, much to the dismay of one of the co-founders who promptly left the company right afterwards.
Or maybe he didn't leave but was just vocally upset his favourite subreddit got shut down with some shitty coverup, I forget.

Lel I posted one of his how to deal video here
I´m gonna´ be honest, I have rarely ventured onto Reddit, but the few times it has I found it far more tolerable than watching others make fun of it.
I get it, they had something to do with the retarded ´le´ bullshit, you don´t have to shove the word in my face 20 odd times each and every time the site is mentioned.
The word is painful to see outside of French literature and irony can only ease the pain so much.

Reddit hate aside, this isn't even funny, they could have made something way more clever
I call April's Fool. :v:
Simple as that.
