Reddit is bad.

Reddit isn't good. It's a really bad echo-chamber, especially the bigger subreddits. (You can get banned for almost anything these days.)
The smaller more niche subreddits are a little better. But in general it's better stay away from that place.
That's why I blocked the website on my browser a few days ago. Nobody needs that toxicity in their life.

I never felt the need to block it, I simply never used it

Remains the best place to go for deep dives on game mechanics, that was it's intersection with the alt right.

Tell me about it. Just the other day I wanted to publish my dick pics on r/dickpics - you know, the bestest dick pics in the world, done by professionals - only to be denied that I'm not verified and that I don't have enough karma. What is this? This is not the internet I grew up with. The internet is going kaputt.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
