It's all relative. If you're gonna make an exception like >>1 , then you shouldn't generalize, really. Like most of social media, it's transient, and will continue to change in response to our culture. Also, >>6, I believe it's what the kiddies call post-irony; I hear it's really popular. Similar to irony, memes, and name calling, post-irony doesn't contribute anything to a discussion.
Reddit is the only website that I can still bear to go on actively.
Saying that it is le memes is like saying that /b/ represents the entirety of 4chan, 4ch, Futaba 2ch and Somethingawful.\
Even the subs well regarded as complete shit-holes like funny, atheism etc. are just a thousand times better than most popular websites nowadays.

I see you!
As far as I can tell, the issue I have with most subreddits, and I'm not subscribed to the popular ones, is that the karma whoring and "for the lulz" comments are real.
I expected from something with accounts to be more serious, and keep the memes for somewhere else.
But hey, it's a representation of the modern internet user.
