Reddit's most glaring fault is it's censorship, built into the very design of the forum and further extended by a variety of moderator tools to force 'discussion' into controlled narratives.

In much of Reddit, and certainly in popular mainstream subreddits like r/news and r/politics, moderators abuse participants, sometimes on personal whim. It's unconscionable to hide censorship actions (shadow-banning) so that the participant doesn't even know they're not being heard.

Reddit is an unhealthy environment for exchanging news, facts and opinions.

I can decide what comments I don't want to read. I'm not okay with denial of free speech and forced narratives.
