I will be honest with you: I have not always been the biggest fan of Reddit. When I was a teenager, I wrote it off as a place where nothing good happens.

Reddit is not the enemy

Don't say rap and country

Reddit has a mediocre reputation depending on who you ask. So many non-Redditors believe it's an absolute cesspool of the worst people with the worst opinions imaginable. I myself believed that before I made my account. I had little to no faith that the website all of my friend's boyfriends were obsessed with would be a fulfilling experience.

Facebook, Twitter, TikTok: every one of these places can be either a pleasant walk in the park or hell on earth, depending…

Reddit dot com can be a pretty intimidating corner of the internet for those unaccustomed to forum-based online communities. You can easily get sucked into Reddit rabbit holes and lose your way if you don't know what you're doing.
