I agree that I'd put io9 last. Somehow it's the one I read most and I'm not sure why :(

They do more (and more unapologetic) clickbait Pringles bullshit listicles than any of the other sites, and also are far more committed to nerd bullshit and the idea of nerds who identify as nerds and just pushing really, really hard and really unironically and un-self-awarely on that button in a way that I don't think any of the other sites really replicate. So those are things that can be kind of appealing, especially immediately, but they're also fucking terrible.

And, really, the whole reason that most of the Gawker sites are at all appealing is because they try not to do that stuff, and when they do, they're clearly aware that it's fucking terrible, and they also have an intelligent, critical point of view about the things that they're reporting on. io9 has none of that, it's just shitty writing and shitty journalism even from a web content providing point of view and I'm honestly disappointed in Gawker for allowing it to continue that way.

ayrt

It's probably those stupid clickbait lists and articles that I keep on reading. I think you explained perfectly why io9 is the worst Gawker site

I'd be okay with it if it kept to reporting on science fiction and fantasy series, but it keeps trying to report on actual science, then falling for blatant quackery or badly mangling the results of studies.

I hate io9's science articles. I wish they'd just stick to other stuff.
I suppose every well-rounded nerd needs to read about science too, to keep up that nerd front (nevermind that the science content on io9 is laughably bad).
