Honestly, the balance I've struck is that Reddit is purely for research now, like Wikipedia. I refuse to engage with it on a daily basis or use it for my social interaction needs but I decided to not avoid its massive database of useful info just because continued daily interaction is a pain

Same, I wanted to know why subpar means bad when getting a subpar score is good in basically every game/sport that has a par score. My options were Quora or reddit for an answer, so realistically just Reddit. There's nothing wrong with that, but I've stopped my daily scroll, commenting, and posting for good.
