Tell me more about this expert sex change?

[โ€“] Eiri@lemmy.ca 12 points 10 months ago

No, you misunderstand. It's not expert sex change

It's experts ex-chang'e. It's a site for Chinese space program retirees.

AMA... I'm cool with it

I'll give you the worse ones, primarily to ward you off from them.

AskReddit - Sometimes you'll get some thought-provoking questions. But a lot of the time, you'll find heaps of over redundant questions, all spread by just minutes to hours apart. A lot of questions I've noticed recently, are people so quick to karma farm that they'll misspell their questions and just go for low-hanging fruit kinds. And then there'll be questions that are sex-driven, ragebaiting and softly bordering around racism/sexism.

r/TooAfraidToAsk - Another cesspool of questions where people ask WAY too many sex-based ones and stupid plain questions that a simple 5 minute google search would take to answer. People love asking troll bait questions there.

Quora - It can't stop nagging you to give them your info if you try reading answers on any question. It's like AskReddit but 24/7 and the quality is a little above. But more or less, you'll find yourself in the same jam.
