i've started to use reddit again and its not really that bad

it's pretty ok compared to the fediverse

@MischievousTomato
Go to one sub
Ask a question

-> Bot detected, that title didn't end with questionmark.

So I go to a fun sub. Try posting a joke.
-> bot detected insufficient carma.

I go to a medical sub. I ask a general nutrition question
-> Bot detected you didn't specify gender and age.

Yeah... no, that isn't what a healthy community looks like.

@LukeAlmighty hasnt been really my experience but dealing with spam by requiring karma is not a bad idea, as for the medical question, it also makes sense, you see similar stuff on bug report pages in github and such
