For example, people on Reddit asking redundant questions and give equally redundant or unhelpful answers.

Whenever every ‘What’s the worst show you’ve seen?’ is asked, you’ll get 10,000 “Kardashians” answers, which is just easy karma farming.

If someone posts in a community that’s geared for something like opinions, but someone elects to just go on a full scale rant instead.

    Questions like “When you’re sexing some sexy sex, how many sex do you sex?”

    Let’s keep the immature high school/sad old desperate man horniness out of here.

      Adding to this, I’d love to never see the phrase “Sexy Time” ever again

      Jesus, yes. I can’t tell you how many subreddits got swamped with high-school leveled questions about sex.

      Especially in TooAfraidToAsk, which is supposed to be about questions that’d normally be about trying to ask taboo things to get a discussion. But no, you’ll come across questions like “if there is no porn to look at, what do you look at instead while jerking off in the shower?”. Like, besides trolls, who the hell comes up with some questions like that? Let’s not forget the abundance of people, showcasing the lack of sexual education, asking if they’d get HPV by doing this or HIV by doing that.

        I feel bad because clearly these poorly educated teenagers need answers to these questions. But it really drags down the level of discourse.

        And not just regarding sex, but any other “oh you’re obviously 14” takes.

          Makes you wonder if the loads of stupid sex questions has anything to do with the lack of proper sex education in schools.

        Reddit seems like it is largely made up of two main demographics. It’s either people in their 30’s, 40’s, 50’s who were there since the site’s launch (me) or teenagers to early/mid 20’s. The latter has a big reach on the site right now.

        who the hell comes up with some questions like that?

        I mean the obvious answer is of course young teenagers, especially if their family has a uncomfortable relation to sexuality.

      I saw one today on that Reddit bot instance of Lemmy titled:

      “I like the smell of my vagnina after my boyfriend cums in me.”

      I’m not sure if it’s bored teenagers, bots or straight up dumb asses that are posting that garbage, nor why.

      Every single time I think about reddit, that picture of a past reddit meet-up appears in my head. 99% were fat, disgenetic, unappealing, unhealthy, weird looking people.

        i don’t know… i see a few people using reddit on public transit and they look alright. I find that kind of disingenuous

          This stereotype has stemmed from the amount of neckbeard incelish redditors that hate on women more than anything

          The different Reddit meetups I had gone to weren’t like that. But after that picture it became nearly impossible to get a meetup going.

        It was a shame because that seemed to kill meetups. I had been to a couple up to that point, they didn’t look like that and were a lot of fun.
