Lol it isn’t. You just like Reddit and refuse to see how it can be just as bad as these other sites. It’s social media.

Don’t apply reductionism to it, though. Not all social media is the same, neither are the algorithms. Not all of them are designed to be equally addictive. If you cannot discern those qualities, then I don’t know what to tell you, we’re on different conversations.

And yes, I am on Reddit, I clearly like it. I used to be on almost all the other big apps, which I have given up. Doesn’t make it perfect, but I find it more bearable and more moderate in its addiction-generation for me as an individual.
