I haven’t been on Reddit for about 2 years now, and it was getting terrible, but Daily Mail was generally downvoted.
Has it really got that bad? That’s really bad for the mental health of those folks still on it.
At least it used to be filled with Labour supporters who didn’t seem to have any idea of what their party actually represented, and hoped that it was some magical unicorn despite the voting patterns of the majority of their MPs.
Yeah. I visit every now and again and the sub is definitely divided.
Posts about immigrants being convicted of rape seem to disproportionately get posted and quickly upvoted, with half the comments being anti immigration (“I’m left wing but…”) and the other half wondering what’s happened to the sub and questioning why such posts keep getting upvoted.
The mods step in and remove tonnes of comments and people complain about how it’s a left wing authoritarian shit hole.
It’s like it’s been taken over the past couple of years with half the user base wondering what the hell is going on.
That said I’ve never found it a particularly good sub, for years every comment was just the same anti Brexit moaning (I’m saying this as someone who strongly wanted to remain) and it was just constant doom and gloom.
No thanks, half the r/uk posts are daily mail anti immigration shite.

Ah geez that sounds difficult to visit. The wankers can stay over there.
