Oh, the people are terrible, but the platform is worse - I don't 
like the tree view nor the voting system. It makes it really hard 
to follow developing discussions and judge the content for 
yourself.

I'm someone who either reads the whole thread and tries to 
respond holistically or just doesn't post at all (usually), so 
segmenting the thread into subthreads with new stuff popping up 
in the middle at random where it is really hard to actually find 
it (sometimes I search a reddit page for "minutes ago"...) just 
kills it.

Reddit encourages hyper fragmentation and repeating the same 
opinions over and over again.
