Majority of reddit content is rage-bait. Most of the popular subs are literally based around it like “idiotsdoingX, mildly infuriating, total piece of shit, etc. but it’s also baked into to all of the news and politics subs, even the gaming subs love to fume about the state of gaming and nitpick every new game.
Thanks for reminding me. I used RES and curated my reddit page to only subreddits I personally followed; I forgot that many redditors have different experience than mine. Most of subreddits in r/popular (or is it r/all?) are just user engagement machine. I agree that’s probably not great for mental health in a long term.

No way in hell that that is healthy for you.
