I'd say it's close between reddit and youtube but killing old.reddit would solidify it.

Reaaallly old YouTube was rough. Very small file size limits, very few creators, slow loading. It definitely got a bit better before it plunged off the deep end.

Whereas Reddit is just straight up a downward line in terms of UI/functionality. In terms of community and subreddits, it's always been a mixed bag of shit but it's definitely worse than it used to be overall.

On the other hand, you could literally just watch TV shows on YouTube because they hadn't figured out automated media fingerprinting yet.
