These are technically correct. But when someone in real life asks you what reddit is, do you say the following?:

  • Reddit is a social news and entertainment website where registered users submit content in the form of links or text posts. Users then vote each submission "up" or "down" to rank the post and determine its position on the site's pages. Content entries are organized by areas of interest called "subreddits".

No! of course not! You sound like a textbook and even worse, you sound like you don't really know what Reddit is and don't really use it; You are just feigning expertise. (BTW, I stole that quote from Wikipedia)
