    we're "less opinionated."

    Good! Commenting on reddit became so exhausting. You have to be so precise with how you word your comments to avoid being attacked. You can't use terms like "a lot of people" because you'll be accused of generalising. And you have to be careful not to use wording that could be seen as, or turned into, a pun because people will jump all over it and you'll never get the conversation back on track.

      This forced me to become a better and more articulate writer...constantly looking for how my words could be twisted (or simply misinterpreted). But, yes, I know what you mean. It also prevented me from making many spontaneous comments when I lacked the time to make the comment bullet-proof. There seemed to be little room for interactive communication.
