This collection of Reddit’s “most-hated” posts paints a depressingly clear picture
Reddit can be a wonderful place that encourages healthy discussions and allows people to find others with similar interests, no matter how niche they may be, but it also has a bit of a reputation for toxicity, misogyny, and just straight-up meanness thanks to some of its less-polite users. Combine that with the way Reddit allows you to “upvote” posts you like and “downvote” the ones you don’t, and suddenly the unpopular posts could be just as fascinating as the popular ones. That’s what a Cornell student names Horace He seems to think, at least, because he’s developed a site called NotReddit.Top that pulls data from the main Reddit site and catalogs the ones with the most downvotes. Like the real Reddit, it even lets users sort posts by the past day, the past month, the past hour, the past year, and all time, meaning NotReddit.Top lets you easily dig up the most-downvoted things ever posted on Reddit.
