If a comment that requires at least some thinking does not have a simple TLDR, preferably as the first line, you're going to get downvotes on Reddit and Imgur. People just aren't there to think and they have this "weapon" that they can use to shoo away anything they don't immediately understand. It's even more ridiculous that simple one sentence or better yet, one meme comments get drives of upvotes. You can easily automate that. Just copy and paste comments in the same thread, mix with some meme comments, and you're halfway to an account with high karma. Begs the question, why bother participating in this bottom of the barrel mindwankery? Nothing but an addiction these days. I say Reddit, but that platform is really a lot of smaller forums with useful information, even if you have to wade through some shit. Imgur on the other hand, I finally couldn't stand the sheer idiocy and quit. It's amazing, and I wish I could quit this site and Reddit, too.
