One of the most censored places I've ever run into. If you have an idea that's against the hive-mind, you will get voted down the more you talk about it. That I can live with, but many forums on there will outright ban dissenters. It gives the impression that the whole world only thinks a certain way.

Then you go to an unrelated forum to discuss an unrelated topic and your "karma" is too low to participate. Rules are very selectively enforced.

A place that's supposed to stimulate discussion and sharing of ideas? Not what is happening at all. Really, the only mainstream place where there is actual free flowing conversation now is Twitter.
You are spot on. There are a few other places, but not worth mentioning here, for… Well, nevermind.

All intelligent actual people, capable of rational and creative thought, left reddit when the shadowbanning was outed. Nothing left there but bots, paid shills, and midwits who love feeling smug after their approved "thoughts" (🤣) are upvoted. The Parrot People. Exactly the types of people advertisers want to reach.
 
Have had absolutely zero problems using reddit. For instance r/nba is fun.

However I also don’t go out of my way to be offensive and am not a nazi, so I guess Twitter may be better for those so-called opinions.
