I know twitter is a household name and everyone knows about it but is reddit really that far behind? My mom isnt using it yet but has probably been linked to it via twitter and facebook over the last year. Not to sound pretentious but there has been a huge shift in the site as it's grown over the last couple of years. Most of the popular subreddits are just pointing out silly behavior on other websites or asking for the hivemind to weigh in on their personal life.


No one wants to acknowledge that they use reddit, because there is a certain stigma associated with being an internet nerd.


Is that still a thing? I get that with like 4chan (and allllll of the up-front, in your face porn there), but with super mainstream sites like reddit? Is that still a thing?
