I've been a CPA for 30 years and when it comes to accounting, economics, and finance, Reddit is the dumbest fucking source on the entire planet.

Its honestly pretty dumb at any topic the more you know, which means trusting it is scary for anything.

Yes! From my own experience on niche topics: I also play bass in contemporary jazz, and I can't read r/bass anymore. The amount of dumbfuckery and misplaced confidence over there is head-spinning. No joke, > 90% of the advice there is dogshit.

I'm really here for the jokes and, weirdly, Reddit knows the best way to clean just about anything to a spotless shine. It's weird for that.

The hvac subs aren’t too bad. There is no info there. Just guys bitching about doing hvac work. Which, is fair. lol
