So I‘ve been on Reddit for more than a year, but I did not understand its peculiarities fully. I agree that those Karma things and other stuff is awesome, but it‘s actually not for me. The thing is that I cannot figure out how to remove my Reddit account. Could you please provide a tutorial on how to remove it?

Reddit gets into the list of the most popular social news and discussion website. It has been found in 2005 by Steve Huffman and Alexis Ohanian  who were roommates studying in the Universiy of Virginia. The name of the website is a play-on-words with the phrase „Read it.“

Although the beggining of the site was not that successful, currently it‘s ranked number 4 most visited site in USA and number 9 in the worlds (US, the British, Canadians, Australians and Germans visit it the most). In the beginning of 2017, Reddit had 542 million monthly visitors and 234 million unique users.

Reddit has a distinctive classification of news‘ categories, i.e. reddit and subreddit. The users whose links or posts are transfered to subreddit section are called redditors. People can upvote or downvote the news, links, and post by giving them some Karma or taking it away.

Not to mention, “Ask Me Anything” or AMA is a trendy term used on Reddit and the Internet society in general to refer to interviews occuring between the discussion pioneer and his/her followers. Reddit AMAs feature allows asking questions to public figures and which is why it‘s extremely popular.

In a nutshell, Reddit is one of the strongest and most visitied news and discussion site in the world, which has a smart and strong community. Nevertheless, many people disapprove off its design and the whole system of communication (Karma, Meta, Upvoting, Downvoting, AMAs, etc.).
