A website that I enjoy to visit often is Reddit.com. This website is
unique to others because all of the information and content comes from
its users. You can search any topic that you want and get articles,
videos or pictures. Using the site is very easy and I have found myself
going through just the front page most of the time because it is updated
in real time. One of my good friends introduced me to Reddit by showing
me funny comics that people post. I soon found myself getting most of
my information from the site and now have a user name.
What I
like about this site is how easy it is to get information. There are
tons of memes that go onto the site and they can be creative because
anyone has the power to submit one. If something significant happened in
the real world you can bet that people will be talking about it on
reddit very quickly. Something that is special with this site is the
upvote system. If someone were to like what you posted they have the
power to give you an upvote making it more popular. While having the
option to upvote, people also can downvote post making it less likely
that another user will view the content.
There are two main
things that I do not like and one of them could use some improvement.
The first is that atheism is very popular on this site and many posts
about this topic get upvotes. People have a right to post what they wish
but it is upsetting to see the support that atheism gets. The second is
how easy it is to see content that is titled NSFW ‘Not Safe for Work’.
With these posts you can see some shocking things and I wish that it was
not so easy to view some of this content. They can pop up on the front
page due to popularity and some post have little to no descriptions.
Other than that I feel Reddit is a great way for people to share ideas
and can express one’s self.
