I certainly agree about Pinterest being where data goes to die - and for Reddit I agree that it has an extremely high quality of information, it's just held back by presentation. If I can find the information I'm looking for on a blog I'll usually prefer that but Reddit usually has a good deal of commentary on whatever the topic I'm looking for is.
- MostlyStable 3y agoOn reason that Reddit is valuable is that it often contains information that, as far as I can tell, literally doesn't exist anywhere else. This is especially true for product category research. Other than Reddit posts, any product that is even vaguely not mainstream, the only information other than Reddit will be obvious marketing blog spam that doesn't actually help differentiate anything. Generally, I'll check wirecutter, and if Wirecutter doesn't have an article about it, then Reddit is the only other useful option. If it's the only option, the presentation doesn't really matter, although I disagree with you on how bad it is. I still quite like old.reddit on desktop. Although admittedly my mobile experience has been severely degraded since my old preferred app got killed.
