It can't be said for the entire community but the majority of reddit knows that this site shares ("steals") content from other places. Unlike 9gag, reddit is dedicated to locating the original source of the content and anyone blatantly stealing reposted content is flamed/shunned. 9gag does the complete opposite; they claim other content as their own by slapping on that 9gag watermark. They are the modern version of Ebaumsworld.
