For what it concerns science, Reddit is way better than /sci/.
The so-hated Karma system works better for what it concerns science.
/sci/ is just a bunch of /pol/tards obsessed with iq and pop-sci/pseudoscientific shit
Give me a reason not to prefer scientific subreddits over /sci/

Yeah, pretty much. /sci/ has always been shit.

Is there some subject at which 4chan is better than anything else, even the pleb reddit? Serious question

>> No.10966784

>>10966782
To be honest, no, I don't think so.
But you know, opinions.
But what in comes to science, it's "impossible" to "prefer" pseudoscience shit over Science
Also, that being shit isn't an opinion as well
I was born in 4chan, but as I grew up, reddit is way better. Yet I'm still here some mornings, when I don't know what to do

I don't think one is better than the other. You are right that there is a lot of pseudoscience here but it gets mocked and proved wrong every time.

Reddit science subreddits are full of retards too. They only read the headlines and jump immediately into conclusions.

> scientist is working on new experimental technology in a lab
> most upvoted posts: this will change our lives in the future!

If you want to discuss things without censorship 4chan will always be the better choice.

You know exactly it's not used in that way when people talk about genders.

The so-hated Karma system also allows for easy manipulation of public opinion and pushing paid posts since Reddit's algorithm is based on karma.

Ten years ago, you and everyone you ever knew would have said gender was a synonym for biological sex. This social construct business is something created by mentally ill activists and adopted by virtue signalling outcasts to feel better about themselves.

You're a special kind of stupid, aren't you? Of course you can censor science by discouraging research, cutting funds, preventing people from publishing etc. I mean it's obvious you're a Redditor. The naivety leaks through.

How the fuck the "public opinion" is gonna push up a research in a specific subreddit composed by expert in that field?

Coming to 4chan really is an experience.
Just like /pol/ , /sci/ here does the same thing to you just with added ego/schizoid/autist flavour.
Spending ones time here turns you into a bitter resentful person n makes u hate everyone who does not pursue “higher truth” maths.
The only benefit from sci is like taking the black pill, its true Maths is god-tier n everything is pseudo-tier.
I was a brainlet engicuck(already graduated) with hopes n dream to live the materialistic consumerisms high life n a year here makes me like a schizoid n i start to resent my pleb med gf. Because sci told me Medicine is fake shit and psychology is fem-tier bullshit(not wrong tho)
In fact sci convert me to doing another Bach.math n altho im amaze with shit i learnt it not gonna give my high life n my cute med gf back.

I like /co/ a lot better than any other comic forum. Mainly for storytimes and talking about releases and bullshitting about comics and getting recs. Other comic forums end up kinda nerd pissing matches and who can be most "informed" for karma forum points to their name.

But the cartoon part is trash.

/Sci/ really is trash about pseudo science and iq race bait. There's maybe one good thread at anytime.

Browsing Reddit science boards makes you feel better about your intellect. You're too lazy to read journals and do research for yourself and you don't have any genuine scientific interests. you'd rather mindlessly browse whatever some groupthink mechanism tells you is the most interesting articles of the week and what to think about them. I guarantee you don't retain the majority of the information you find on Reddit. what little you do retain you don't actually understand, you just parrot the top comments opinion. It's highbrow pop science at best. Also no one can take a joke and everyone likes to pretend they're a reviewer at Nature and not just shitposting on the internet.

if you don't like the topics discussed on /sci/ then maybe you should start threads about topics your interested in. Oh wait, you can't because you don't have any interests. If you're genuinely bothered by based schizos and trolls then you clearly havent thought through your beliefs. If your threads don't get attention it's because you have boring ideas

I think /a/ might still be slightly above r/anime and r/animemes simply because it's not 90% recommendation threads and your can filter all the generals. Albeit the discourse itself is absolutely abysmal

I agree with this point. Dumb people want smarter people to spoonfeed them information. Redditors don't want to learn anything; they want to consume information that makes them feel good. You see daily posts on reddit about "something something new technology" to battle climate change that doesn't actually work that gets a lot of attention.

I remember that a few months ago I got interested in gender disphoria and read studies about it. I found that most of them were invalid because they lacked a control group or a long term tracking. Of course redditors don't like this. It's impossible to discuss these kind of things on reddit; you will be downvoted to hell or get banned.

Imagine actually using 4chan or reddit for something useful. Let me guess you go to /biz/ for financial advice? The only thing this website is good at is shitposting and memes because it's full of degenerates, and reddit is full or normies so it's average as fuck so you might as well watch a youtube video for discussion, but that's still shit tier compared to reading a book

/sci/ isn't any better. Not exactly a lot of linking to journals. And even if you do if op is some faggot going on about race or some gender iq bs or aliens and you point out how iq is bullshit or provide links on how no aliens didn't do this it's got a perfectly normal observable explanation you get called a shill.

But I like it cause some of the questions are just so damn dumb it makes me research just to prove them wrong and even though that's impossible I learn more details about a subject than I did before.
