When it comes to Reddit, people either love it or despise it. And, to be honest, I agree with both of them. What I mean is that I found some amazing community over on Reddit since the beginning of the Pandamic, and they immediately bonded with me, and we share a lot of information together. However, I have seen some really bad subreddits that should have been closed because they cause more harm than good.
In the end, I believe Reddit is a good platform, and I enjoyed spending time there during the Pandamic, but if they could improve their monitoring system, this platform would outperform all other types of social media.

Tip for consumers:
try to find the subreddit that suits you the most.
avoid subreddits that share some toxic ideals
make sure you don't share your personal information

Products used:
reddit is full of good subreddit that fits for everyone some examples:
reddit.com/r/aww
reddit.com/r/sugarfree

Whenever I find a nice alternative to the major firms that nearly have a monopoly on a given service, I want to give it a try, and so far things have gone better than I expected. I started using the website when I bought two cheap items since I don't spend a lot of money on websites I don't trust, but when I placed the second order, I made a mistake and contacted support, who were really sympathetic and adjusted my order. That gave me the confidence to order some night vision binoculars in the $200 range, which were delivered to my house last week.
The shipping time wasn't as quick as Amazon's, but it wasn't unacceptable.

Tip for consumers:
Based on my experience, this one is a decent alternative if you prioritize money above a shorter wait time.
Give new companies a chance, shop responsibly, and don't always buy from the same huge company, giving them too much personal information.

  • DuckDuckGo

7/1/21

Let make this clear this search engine is far from perfect, but when you start comparing it to the other search engines out there, duckduckgo will be the best choice at our current time with it policies and good algorithm simple ui. And I think it will improve as it grows and more people start to use it while insisting that the company should not change form it mean goal as a neutral search engine that respects people's privacy. Also some people won't care that much about the name but I think they are better finding a smaller easier name to make it more attractive to use.

Tip for consumers:
If you refuse to replace your old search engine with this one at lest whenever you don't find something on your principle search engine you can have this one as a back to get more results

YouTube is filled with all different types of content, and when it comes to entertainments It kind of doing fine, but when it comes to educational content or informational ones they should have a better filtering system, as whenever I try to find something informational on YouTube and I search for it on English, somehow there is always a chance of 40 percent of the videos would be on one of the languages that are related to India, and only the title would be on English. And I don't think it would be that hard for YouTube to filter these kid of content. So we won't have to keep guessing which video is on English

Tip for consumers:
If you are bothered by the none English content under English title, you can try and write the word English after your query at least this way you have a higher chance of avoiding these bothersome videos.

  • Facebook

Facebook allow you to give as much information about you as possible which we don't mind as an option but after that they could force you to give more or else you want have access to your account and you could lose all of your contacts over there if they want to do it, with out the need to explain why they did it.
I think facebook should be doing the opposite, they should allow us to know as much information as we can about it and how it is using our data, while it should not be allowed to force you to give your personal information if they decided to close your account.
And instead of going directly for block or ban they could tell you that they will block you on 24 hours or so. To allow you to inform your contacts and take what you need from your account before you lose access to your account.

Tip for consumers:
try to find other alternatives that will not force you to give up your information only to be used later by scammers to take your money or even impersonate you. or at least if you can't close your facebook account, you can start using other alternative in parallel with facebook and tell your contacts about it, so if you ever lose your account on facebook you still have a backup plan.
