Reddit - I don't get it

back in the old days there were a bunch of messageboards such as this one devoted to every topic you can think of, from sports to medical stuff to prepping for apocalypse to UFOs or whatever. Then reddit comes along and suddenly all the little kids flock to it like the did with twitter and tumblr, whatever.
Anyway I can't stand the place - the user interface is infuriating and won't load messages without having to click multiple times.
Furthermore, I have not found much informational value from it - most of the posts on specific topics resemble blog posts instead of anything useful - the forum culture seems to be based more on social media points than usefulness or even entertainment.
Am I missing something with reddit?

It’s a great concept and works well but can’t stand the ultra PC-ness of it.

Yeah but I think they're on about being able to be racist, homophobic, sexist etc. Reddit's full of millenials and Gen-Z's so I'd imagine that doesn't go down too well these days

For some people, "PC" means not openly calling various groups subhuman.

Na not that. More how everyone kisses each other’s back sides and refuse to make a point out of the mainstream view in fear of being down voted. Mainly only go and check NBA or Arsenal. unlike here where you are able to exercise an opinion or occasional WUM, it’s not accepted there.

Reddit has everything. Perhaps you need to visit different subs from the ones your visiting. There are PC subs and non PC ones etc. From cancel culture to racists and supremacists trying to look normal enough to not get cancelled or banned al together.
