Reddit is an awful place full of awful rules and awful people and plenty of censorship and manipulation of topics and comments , manipulated by real people and also bots they have created to monitor conversations.
They shadow ban topics and comments to create an illusion of fair conversation.
They have the collective ego of being relevant but are nowhere near the level of facebook or twitter or instagram.
Or even Yahoo news.
They are just an annoying little site that keeps popping up like that poop that just won't flush , that's reddit , the shit that won't flush , reddit is about as relevant as myspace.
AMA seems to be the last grasp that reddit has , and why do you need reddit for that ?
Judging by your comment history, you seem to exist here just to make derogatory remarks about reddit. Could be time to move on to more fertile ground before your account goes [dead]. Reddit isn't really my kinda thing so I don't go there (except now and again for a particular sub-reddit I find topical for me at this time).
Find a community you do enjoy engaging with, ignore the ones that spike your blood pressure. Life is too short.
You do know Hacker News shadow bans users, has a list of certain domains that are outright banned, and has a moderation team that occasionally kills stories, right?
As pg says at the beginning of the comment, if you want to know if a particular domain is banned, just submit something and see if it's dead immediately.
FWIW, this comment and my previous one aren't a complaint: I think that most of this is a good thing. I _do_ think the mods kill some important stories, and I think the flamewar filter is terrible, but I'm glad for a lot of it, and wish there was more.
Reddit is wonderful for fostering fringe communities and inspiring others to become a part of a subculture, whatever it might be. If you're comparing it to fb, tw, or ig, you've already missed the point of its existence.
Reddit is like the world,there is the best and the worst.There are awesome subs like there are stupid/porn/horrible/hatefull subs.You only get what you seek on reddit.
