I pay for a Reddit subscription, but it’s honestly not a great place for communities.
The communities on Reddit is in my experience always lower quality, more combative and less friendly than communities on discord, discourse and irc.
Reddit certainly has its flaws. I suppose I've been fortunate that most of the sub-reddits I'm interested in have pretty good members. There's invariably always a jerk or two. I've run into that on Discourse, too. I suppose it's just something ingrained to online communities. I don't love Reddit, but it is the closest thing I've found to a central hub for multiple communities.
