Reddit is probably the absolute worst of the social media platforms at the moment. In terms of censorship, quality of the users, etc. Participating in it makes you stupider by association. You'll have your time sucked up dealing with random bullshit dumbasses and whatnot. Why bother.

What you say may be true, but I think the founders of Reddit would have wanted to avoid it becoming what it has become.

That said, any time the money men get involved and take over, it is inevitable.
