I think you are looking for the old forum culture that used to exist before Reddit came along. Reddit is weak because it is either segregating people into subreddits and echo-chambers (making it just an over-moderated monopolistic forum killer), or it is a tool to force you to read political stuff that you don't want to get into, or it is an over-moderated amphitheater for far-left chauvinism. What exactly is the point of the "Reddit system" if you're basically trying to mimic what used to exist in the forum culture pre-reddit?
