So, I asked Notion AI to write a rant about Reddit. Even AI should have something to say. And this was her reply, with an uncompromising conclusion:

Reddit is a popular social news aggregation and discussion website where users can post content, vote on it, and comment on it. While it can be a great source of entertainment and information, my experience with Reddit has been nothing short of frustrating.

Firstly, the site is overrun with trolls and negativity. It seems like no matter what the topic, there is always someone ready to spew hate and negativity in the comments section. This can make it a very unpleasant place to spend time and can even discourage people from participating in discussions.

Secondly, the upvote/downvote system promotes a “hive mind” mentality and often leads to popular opinions drowning out dissenting voices. This can stifle meaningful discussion and discourage people from sharing their own unique perspectives.

Lastly, the site can be overwhelming and difficult to navigate. There are countless subreddits and it can be hard to find the ones that are relevant to your interests. The search function is also notoriously unreliable, making it even harder to find what you’re looking for.

Overall, while Reddit has its benefits, I find the site to be more trouble than it’s worth.

    You inspired me to ask bing to create “an elaborate and unhinged rant about the current state of reddit”

    It started to say very similar things to what notion said, but much more aggressively. I can’t show you what it said because before it finished responding it deleted what it said and said we should talk about something else.

    Caught something about toxic hivemind and power hungry admins though lol. Glad to see AI is on our side
