I found in the subreddits related to my career and hobbies the discussions were pretty circular, there's a low level of basic knowledge but as soon as you rise above that and start dealing with nuance, the average user can't handle it. It was different 10-15 years ago, but the modern /r/[inserthobby] Redditor seems to have exclusively educated themselves via Reddit content. X and Instagram are login-walled, I don't have accounts there and can't see any content. I don't really read comments on YouTube, I check like the top 3 to see if anybody has pointed out something major the video got wrong or glossed over. As soon as I see the teenager-level comments with some silly meme or typing out an event that happened in the video word-for-word I close the tab. >Couldn't you just ... not log in? Sure, I guess, but I like the ethereality of my approach.
