The Student Room vs Reddit?

New to Reddit but curious what you guys/gals prefer and why?

(I realise opinions may be biased due to posting this on TSR)
Reddit cause it's funnier (sorry)
Reddit is less pc and pretty fun but I use tsr more because I am always logged in. I use Reddit for specialist intense discussion on my hobbies haha and it was funny looking at the new Harry Potter reactions on thwre
Reddit layout confuses me lol
Reddit definitely has its advantages. It's good for live threads of current events, and I use a subreddit to follow the Syrian civil war very closely. There's a lot of interesting stuff in reddit. In those areas it's better than TSR.

The problem is that with some of the larger subreddits (like askreddit) you often don't get to threads quickly enough to be able to do much. Once a thread gets past a few hundred comments, there's little chance of anyone upvoting or responding to a comment you post - you have to get into a good thread early if you want a decently upvoted comment with a lot of replies, especially with the time difference because reddit is quite an American website. In the quieter subs that's not a problem though.
Reddit is better on phone
