Oh this is where I was suppose to debate. Now I feel bad for debating in general.

Its all over the place

People debate in the shitposting channel as well

LMAO.... are you shitting me? That is hilarious!

lel

Yeah, and then they sometimes shitpost in debate.

The whole server is kinda a mess of random shitposting and debating. People do tend to stick to the purposes of each channel, but it's not really set in stone.

We need more moderators

No we don't. More mods means more potential for abuse.

Things are messy, but they aren't being *abused*

These forums are anarchy!

XD

They really are filled with various shades of libertarian 😛

Man, this like /r/cringeanarchy but with less racism, homophobia, Donald Trump circle jerking & cringe.

So nothing like it

Well it does have the anarchism & anti-SJW sentiments of sorts.

And Ive also found some antisjw stuff cringy as hell

Then again, only the crazy ones let you know they hate sjws

I really can't stand thedonald subreddit, that entire place is a trump based safe who will kick you out if you don't conform to it. You can call the mods on cringeanarchy a bunch weaboo furry Nazis & the worst they might do to you is give you an insulting flair, they also don't care if you criticize the content in the sub which weird balances things out, especially since it can still be on /r/all. Also that place operates on some level of self-awareness instead of just turning into a straight cult.

So all in all, if you are there you are either cringing with the content or at the content, it is an anarchy of cringe.

TD is really something. I got there alot to see what's going on.

Still its very honest about their biases.

Also.... I think I prefer being called a shill or an idiot than being told I dont deserve to be alive.

I use TD to see the stuff the MSM won't talk about along with Newsvoice (thanks Tim), Discord, and YouTube for more mainstream stuff.

I've been guilty of shitposting in Debate before. 😛

Reddit was a mistake. Change my mind

I has cute animal subreddits like /r/corgi.

You can just do a generic image or video search for animal pictures

Sort of, but content on reddit is moderated by sub mods & voted on by users. Where as a search engine just goes with what is most relevant, & I don't want to scrol far enough down in a search engine before I hit furry porn of corgis.

Why not?

The methods of moderation and voting are why reddit is inherently trash

But are we not in a discord server that not just dictates what content we are allowed to post, but also how we are allowed to post them?

Discord does not, by design, rank posts based on raw popularity and hide things people just don't like

Nor does Tim's discord ban based on association with other discords. That said, I wouldn't call discord good either, just "less bad"

Yeah, but that highlights one other similarity of reddit to discord, the purpose of the discord server/subreddit & the quality of the moderators/moderation. There are subreddits/servers that are operated by tyrants, there are subs/servers moderated by anarchist, for example, if I think tim & his mods is too much of a tyrant for not letting me links to boobs in every channel or letting me criticize him enough, then I can make my own discord still dedicated to his content but with different rules. Yeah, it really sucks that there are subs with mods who are jerks, but most other sub mods don't care what you post to other places unless it is malicious brigading.

No, the thing I'm talking about isn't merely moderation, it's the foundation of the site

Popular shit, even if it's boring virtue signalling, goes to the top. Stuff that is unpopular enough gets hidden. Everything is reputation focused within a popularity contest format

Well that is the one of the things that is obviously different between between discord & reddit, the ability of other users who are not mods to effect the visibility of content by popularity when you sort content by the default settings. The only way for that to happen on discord is for there to be multiple people who would rather talk about something else, & displaces & ignores the content with their own.

Right and that's an issue with Reddit

Almost every thread I see, the most vapid boring and often incorrect but communally sanctioned shit hits the top of the pile, and legitimate criticism gets downvoted below the threshold

But what does that have to do with my corgi subreddits?

Sure there are reposts sometimes, but I usually get new & fresh pictures of corgis.
