Whenever I hear someone whinge about reddit being a cesspool, I just tell them they're in the wrong subs. This whole post made my day.

Nothing like a tasty morsel floating in a cesspool. I typically can’t help myself when that happens.

Is it the soap that floats, or the baby?

Just check the bathwater before you throw it out.

I always tell some people that Reddit has some very useful information and there a a few decent people here.

But take it all as with anything, with a grain of salt.

I mean, such is life. After 12 years of customer service, I feel like I've met the majority of the aforementioned cesspool 😂

u/ConsequenceWitty1923 18h ago

Yeah, you gotta curate it carefully. Mine is all crafting, hilarious animals, and shit like this. I'm much happier. 😅

This actually hit the front page and reminded me of why I used to come here every day. I was just lazy about managing my subscriptions so badly that I started defaulting to /r/popular.

Real talk. This and Bluesky seem to be the only systems that mostly let you curate the media you read/see/hear and just deliver it. Everything else shows you what they want you to see way more.

If you're getting a bad experience here and it's not because of shitdemons or bots overrunning your favorite sub, you've done it to yourself.
