In general, traditional online forums were superior to Facebook and Reddit. These have gradually diminished in quality as the majority of the conversation has shifted to comment sections or Facebook groups.
Discussions on Reddit and Facebook tend to be shallow. Each week, the same subjects are superficially repeated. Many posts consist solely of images. Determining specific information is a challenging task. Deceptive or false posts attract thousands of likes despite being objectively false; the same post will be periodically reposted in the future. Social media platforms, such as Facebook and Reddit, have developed algorithms with the intention of generating increased advertising revenue through user engagement and interactions.
On the traditional forums, discussions were in depth and organized. Topics were less frequently repeated. A moderator has the authority to consolidate an old thread with an unnecessary new thread. However, traditional forums were mostly inadequately planned. Despite its cringeworthy aspects, Reddit's convenience lies in having all the necessary forums accessible through a single username. The mobile apps also facilitate quicker access at any time. No one desires to sift through 10 lengthy pages of irrelevant content to engage in a discussion, particularly when some of those pages are outdated. Forums were often hubs for administrative misconduct and favoritism among certain groups. Reddit may be superficial, but most forums also had shallow substance, albeit in the form of overused inside jokes.
