Recently, I’ve been questioning how useful the reddit info actually is. I’ve been lurking in multiple subreddits related to things I’m actually quite knowledgeable at, and the amount of times I’ve seen people asking questions and getting absolutely bogus answers that were highly downvoted was just… concerning. Not to mention how often the correct answer was heavily downvoted for absolutely no reason. That’s when I realised - hey, maybe redditors aren’t that smart after all? I can detect the bullshit for the things I actually know, then what about things that I don’t? Should I trust them?
Not to mention that to get the info you want, usually you’ll have to get through a bunch of shitty jokes, going off topic, rants and even some “totally-not-sponsored” comments.
