I think that's a very unfair assessment. Reddit is as diverse as the internet itself. There are plenty of good subreddits there and the toxic stuff is easy to avoid.

Do yourself a favour and unsubscribe to any subreddit that deals with the news or politics. Some subreddits have become too big to properly moderate, unsubscribe to them too.

Diversity certainly decreased massively in the last years just by content restrictions and overbearing moderators. But true, you have to find the niche subs and pray that they aren't discovered by people that have a moderate to high degree of problems with internet comments.

Reddit may have had a diverse user base in the past but in the last three years they enacted the same heavy censorship we have seen elsewhere and basically have no diversity of thought now in any major subreddit

The vast majority of people browsing reddit do not leave the default subs or filter news and political posts. Individually opting out of the toxicity and astroturfing does not address the problem on the website as a whole.
