Reddit was great. It started as a response to sites like Digg where people would vote for an article and talk about it without having Read It. That was a great idea. Then, slowly but surly it was taken over by children. They first and worst thing they did was add images to the home page. That alone was enough to kill the idea of the site and turn into a meme popularity contest, not for discussing articles you read. Now children and teenagers rule the roost. I wish there was a good alternative but enough good people are still stuck on Reddit that its hard for any competitors to get traction.
