I feel like reddit has had a negative influence on my ability to participate in the internet altogether. I've been reading Reddit like a news website: clicking on content and reading comments. I've stopped contributing to the internet. I don't know how to find or create new content for the internet anymore, and I've stopped actally participating in discussion. Now that reddit has split, I'm being forced out of <strike>hiding<strike> lurking. I want to be able to produce content that is liked and popular, but I'm afraid.

Reddit has certainly hurt my attention span. I'm now so used to bite size factoids and summaries that I've found my desire for longer (and more informative) discussion has lessened.
