All day over there its, "why are my shrooms purple?".
Then someone responds with, "that's just spores, man. They're still good, just less potent."
And it's like that, every. single. day.
When it's not spores, it's "why are my shrooms turning blue? Are they contaminated?".
I mean, I'm a noob myself, but how the fuck does someone actually manage to get to the point where they're getting fruits, and not know about freaking spores?

Yea, that's true probably I guess.
I'm just getting real tired of reddit. I mostly just go there for the pictures of people's grows. I can browse that porn all day

Isn't there like unlimited grow pics here?
I am also getting tired of reddit. But not for that reason, because it is like thoughtless mob mentality devoid of any logic when it comes to politics. Posting truth that isn't nice to hear gets your destroyed by downvotes.

Yeah, you post something unpopular on reddit and you'll surely get downvoted into oblivion.
I've bought spores off there many times from some legit peeps though, so it isn't completely useless.
For the most part reddit is garbage though, 1/10.

Yeah I generally stay out of drug discussions on there, just too many idiots on the downvote button. I remember on this weed subreddit someone who was being a dick otherwise referred to some news story, someone else asked for a link, and I posted a link to it. A couple people had been arrested for a weed deal in public post legalization. For posting the link I got downvoted to like -20, I guess because people associated me with other stupid stuff the first guy had said. The same article had even been posted in the same sub like a week previous to that.
On another sub the idea that high THC content on a label generally means you get more high was pretty controversial apparently. Now I get that there is some natural variation within a batch vs the samples they tested, and terpenes probably contribute to an "entourage effect" and make some weed hit above its THC content vs the bone dry shit with little terpenes. But THC does in fact get you high and I find the labeled percentages a pretty reliable predictor of strength.

Good for technical referencing stuff, not structured in a way that's good for recognizing people over a long period of time. It's not really good for establishing a community, but pretty good for mass resourcing information.

Yeah everything about Reddit sucks dick. The whole layout, the mods (except one)..
There’s this one subforum I wanted to post on but you have to have a certain level of popularity points and Im not over there chasing plus 1’s so they’re basically saying fuck you.... so I say it back. But I mean it more ..

It's weird how any regular user can have "followers" on there now. And you don't know who they are.

Now I can’t even read the subreddit without downloading their app and that isn’t happening.
They basically just nig’d themselves..

It took me a while to get into reddit. the lack of community bothered me for a while. The upvote and downvote system does kind of annoy me.
But theres a lot of good info

I've found lots of people who were into prints. Otherwise I agree that it's for sure a hivemind for lots of things, they are all into the same ideas and beat down any dissent viciously.
The shroom people over there can be pretty legit IMO (not as good as here of course).

I subscribed to most of the psychedelic subs for a while and oh boy, there are some pretty cringeworthy posts on there. r/Psychonaut can be especially facepalm-ey sometimes , not to mention elitist. r/LSD, r/DMT and r/shrooms are just memes and trippy pictures. And r/Drugs is just terrible, filled with kids and reckless users asking bad questions and giving bad advice (there are a few good posters though).
r/AskDrugNerds, r/AskDrugs and r/DrugNerds seem to be not as trash though, and consistently have pretty interesting topics. r/dissociatives is also pretty chill, if small/inactive.
Other than that, it's best not to dive into the site too much, especially political discussions omg . It's like junkfood for your mind (believe me i was kind of addicted to it at some point). Oh and the music subs aren't bad if you want to find new things in the genres you enjoy

The best thing that came out of 4chan was the Shia Labeouf "he will not divide us" thing being trolled hard years ago, and those people playing capture the flag around the country by just using star constellations and airplane routes in the background lol

Reddit up to about 2015-2016 was amazing.
But now, Reddit is one of the overall single-worst sources for information on the internet.
Do you know why?
Because people that actually know what they're talking about, get sick of getting brigaded, downvoted, or blocked out by incorrect, but popular, "information", so it just becomes an echo chamber instead of an actual resource.
Reddit is the illusion of constantly updated information being shared, but when you actually now how to research, you realize it's mostly people sharing the same incomplete bullshit over and over.

reddit is ok for buying spores or maybe trading, because usually there are more people because of multiple forums
