>Terrible UX VC chickens coming home to roost, the inevitable ultimate fate of every single VC-funded startup >mostly useless answers (most replies to posts are either poorly sarcastic or not replying to the actual point) 1) reddit format is vastly inferior to classic forums for serious discussion. everything except for a couple stickied threads is ephemeral 2) the culture is dominated by repetitive low-quality humor and insufferable soapboxing that spills over into topical subreddits |

I find ephemera one of the most enjoyable aspects of most social media - most of what's talked about is inherently time-based
Sure, it's helpful to be able to find some forum post or Reddit thread on replacing a freezer control board for your 2011 upright Frigidaire (not that that happened to me in the last week, or anything ;)) - but most topics are inherently short-lived
