There are plenty of valid reasons for wanting one. I'm not against them. They just don't suit my particular use case, and I hate deliberately misleading studies.
Not so much as a secret Trump supporter as helping to muddy the waters. There are many, many valid criticisms to make of Biden (and even more things to validly praise, oddly enough never covered in the press....)
I think the problem people have with criticism, valid or otherwise, is that this is no time to raise any doubt whatsoever about who should be president next. Yes, that's a propagandist's position. It's also the only morally and practically correct one given the existential challenge we face.
Second time for me. I migrated about ten years ago from Metafilter, which I eventually rage quit. That really fucking hurt, and Reddit filed that niche in my life (but not the meeting IRL or helping IRL part).
Now I've had to go through the same thing with Reddit. I'm into Lemmy, Mastodon, and Bluesky, but it's not the same. I hope it's just not the same, yet.
You're getting downvoted, and I don't 100% agree with you, but I agree with your principal: at least a decade's, maybe 15 years' worth of the best answers to niche questions on the internet are going to die with Reddit, either because people delete/replace their comments or, more likely, Reddit just fucks them up some how in trying to monetize the answers.
Yeah I saw this over on Mastodon, and there were a lot of stats folks questioning the methodology. I'm not qualified to do that, but my sons are Zoomers as are all their male friends, and they are all good feminists. This is in NW Europe, so might be a bit biased.
