I'm struck by the fact that the Reddit is now just straight fucking video content almost exclusively. And most of it is just reposts from TikTok.

It happened so slowly. But it's just video, video, video.

I don't like video content. Video content is not entertaining. Video content eats up the bandwidth on my phone. I do not like Reddit.

Maybe it's an ADD thing, or an 'aging millenial shaking thier fist' thing, but video is soooo slow.

For reference or discussion, I always seek text first, to the point I'll even download/make transcripts if video's the only place I can find something. They just have so much filler.

No that's just true, videos are designed around ad slots — not content. A text guide you can scan through yourself is infinitely superior.

Edit: caveat, 30 second videos from some Indian dude in his apartment. Them shits are gold.

Video seems designed for people who mainly want to be entertained for a few minutes (usually just over the 10 minute mark, never mind how that is the exact limit tied to increased advertising revenue...), rather than people who seek actual information to parse.

Ngl, while eating lunch this describes me. But I more often want information too, otherwise, and yet ever since Google purchased and decided to promote YouTube the text based ones seem to mysteriously be much more difficult to find...

Don't get me wrong. Some YouTubers are great and informative, and I adore those random washing machine repair videos... But yeah. As reference its an awful format.

It's like how discussion has mostly move from forums, to Reddit, and now to Discord. I get it, it's highly engaging since it pings your phone and folks shoot the breeze, but it is an information black hole.

Agreed. There's also the issue of indexing. You can't ctrl+f a fucking video.

Actually, the post you made which is factual to you is incorrect, because I have a different opinion and what you experienced as a real life event is false. Now your opinion will be downvoted so no one can see it, you know, to keep discussion vibrant and engaging. Now please only re-post last week's top post or the gifs that appear at the top of every post.

The Lemmy version is: "guys I want to install Linux because I'm not comfortable with Windows but I'm not a tech genius and I just want a computer that I can install the OS and not have to worry about it again because I don't have a lot of free time and I don't want to have to spend hours troubleshooting it ever and I don't understand any of the terms you guys throw around when you're discussing Linux. I don't know what OS to choose or how to set up the post install and I'm super confused, I hear you talk about repos, and incompatibility with drivers, and picking different options that I don't understand what they are or how to choose and it's like you're all speaking a different language." "well if you want to rot with Windows then you deserve to have all your personal data stolen, it's a willing choice you made at this point you idiot, why are you even here?"

Unfortunately many people instead simply leave Lemmy entirely (and then complain about exactly that over in r/RedditAlternatives).

Never went back to reddit. But i get it. My current blocklist on lemmy is longer than it ever was after 10 years of reddit. The relative amount of weird stuff on here is too damn high for a normie.

Well yes but... every time in the last 2 year whenever i tried to post ANYTHING(meme,brainstorming,ideas,help) i got so many people to hate speech on me that i had to delete every post i made. Well in terms of every social media has haters i am totally agree. But in my personal view currently reddit holds the crown as one of the most toxic paople on social network.

No, they won't come into your post/comment and lecture you about something, because they have 100000000000000000000000% better knowledge than you! Just don't exist.
