I always advise people to never, ever use Reddit as a reference for anything.
Why and what reference do you rec instead? Even this site gets fake news that stays up for hours.
I think that's the point. If you have to go looking for a reference and don't easily find one, it's probably fake.
Books, and your grandma’s notes on making jam, I guess.
I would avoid and distrust most social forums, such as reddit, that have Pookas which are fond of rumpots, crackspots and how are you bix6? -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NeEsx2QLJ40
Sure, ‘knee-jerk’ reddit is unreliable, but many upvotes over time with supporting comments can be a strong signal of truth
It’s unfortunately only a symbol of bot activity or popularity with the crowd in the subreddit.
What do you mean? I can post whatever I want on Reddit and I can make it have as many upvotes as I need. They basically make bot farms undetectable, by hiding histories and automatic username selection. Literally nothing should be considered truth with Reddit as its only source

Why? Their system is literally mined for its Q&A merit by search engines. If it was all very bad information, NYSE: RDDT would not exist.
