It became awful around 2016. One of my interest areas is political and usually pretty controversial. I have a degree in the area and decades of practical experience. Reddit was one of the few places where I occasionally found people with similar background to discuss more than just superficially. That completely changed in 2016. Everybody with actual knowledge on the subject was banned from all related subs. Knowledge became a threat, only the "correct" ideology was allowed to remain. Tbh, I was pretty shocked how easily people are radicalized.
