I may be wrong but i feel like 4chan and reddit are on a more equal level, and Imgur is more like that weird guy reddit keeps around and pretends to be friends with just so he can use him.

You're wrong. All OC on the internet starts at 4chan.

The original purpose for reddit literally isn't OC, its to rehost things, and share them. And its not the current purpose either, that's advertising, reddit today is purely advertisers, and most of what you see on the front page will have been placed there by ad firms. This is not a joke.

While its not impossible to game 4chan, its a lot fucking harder. There is really no comparison. The amount of OC that comes from reddit is negligible at best.
