or when you are reading interesting threads and people starts posting and up-voting stupid comments... last time I was reading about an interesting machine painting manual signatures: excited commenters started talking how much they where expecting such machine painting penises... I mean, I feel so out from those communities and they leave me such depressing feelings.

So you're saying you don't like Reddit for being Reddit... because the whole trends towards the lowest common denominator seems to be all Reddit is now-a-days.

  That sounds about right. Reddit just isn’t a fun place to be, and hasn’t been for years. I’m not sure what the value proposition is for Reddit anymore, other than for the owners of Reddit.

    Just because it isn't fun for you doesn't mean it isn't fun for others. Fun, humour, and social interactions in general are very subjective. There's clearly people that do enjoy that kind of humour or else Reddit wouldn't be where it is today considering it's basically always been like what you described.

  Now-a-days? I've had an account there for over 10 years (I joined Feb 2008 but lurked for a while before that) and it has always been that way.

    Exactly. Reddit is managing to stay young and stupid while most communities grow up with their userbase.
