Reddit is very bubble reinforcing. The way they link articles you see the posters opinion before you see content and you don’t even click the content before you start debating. Mods ability to ban enforces group think. How do you avoid just seeing a very limited range of opinion?
To me Twitter is good at getting links to a wide variety of content by following a wide selection of people. Sure you can self censor and just follow those who agree with you but I find of all the social media sites it’s the easiest to escape your bubble and follow people you disagree with. I don’t read comments or participate I use it as a newsfeed.
