People have to be willing to give things a try, so I think it will definitely grow. I was never a Reddit user, I tried this on a whim, just to try and have conversations with different people. The one good thing is that there are many functional apps, and you will only see things you are interested in, and when you don’t, you down vote it.

But ultimately it’s still the same echo chamber that all social media is, but without ads.

Don’t downvote stuff just because you’re not interested in it! There’s no algorithm you’re training, you’re just being rude to people.

Downvotes should be for worthless content and people being dicks.
