And yet you post nothing of substance.

From the person with 22 submission upvoats.
Not that my 17 is better.

Are we playing the "I got more karma than you" game?

Well, at least it's true.
Hey, wait a minute. UMA THURMAN! WOW!

Get over yourself. That's exactly why I left reddit. Mainstream is in fact nauseating to many, many people.

I noticed that when you couldn't see the slightest peep from the latest TV shooter in all of reddit, when usually those things dominates the front page for a while.
I guess it really doesn't count when you're a black, gay SJW.

The front page is set up to include your defaults and voat is slightly different but similar. So the choice is yours.

Reddit is an echo chamber and it's heavily censored so it's really no wonder the only things on the front page a mostly cat videos.

I started suspecting the same when I started seeing submissions like that with 7000+ one above the other.

It's possible, but I think it's equally possible that, with a large enough userbase, the same kind of bland stuff will rise to the top.

If you are subbed to /r/aww and /r/adviceanimal then what do you expect? If you want intressting content that you can have a conversation about then go to places where such content is posted, not subs that is dedicated to posting cute pictures.

Lol @ the reddit shills. "you can pick what you subscribe to" Well no fucking shit? Maybe I want to hear what's going on in science, or see what the new cute thing is. There's no crime in that. OP is talking about the consistent lack of depth in posts that consistently end up on the front page. Ignore these idiots @china_troll. You're not wrong by a long shot.
