Tell the best experience or interaction you had on Reddit, and the worst one.

The best for me would be when r/egg_irl helped me realize I was in fact, not cis. Or when r/aspiememes helped me comprehend that my psychologist at the time was wrong. The worst one would be every single time I had to deal with powertriping mods or when I had to fight the rampant transphobia in the platform.

My best experience was hanging around in r/conlangs Small Discussions, helping out the newbies and being helped by more experienced users. I genuinely cared about that place, and I felt that the mods were actually trying to create a good community, not to enlarge their e-peens.

My worst is probably when disagreeing with a certain mod, who decided to distort what I said into the complete opposite, just to ban me. (I was being surprisingly polite so he couldn't ban me out of rudeness.)
