Free speech? On here? I've had an account for over a year but only been using it regularly for a few months and I have yet to actually speak freely without getting bombarded with down votes and extremely angry people just because of my opposing views. Maybe I came to the party too late and you used to be able to say anything?

Yes, 2015 was when reddit became unusable.

*Welcome to Voodoosuppe, and others. Give it another shot. The tranny is out, and things are running fairly smoothly again.

It had mainly teenagers in 2010 when the site crashed, and the kids joined Reddit (where, by a servey we learned that most were in their early 20s, and many somewhat older than that, mainly working in IT). Since then, Reddit has been for a predominantly younger goofball audience and mainly for entertainment.

A link aggregator site that used to be popular, right up until they changed their design and policies. Then everyone fled and started Reddit.
