A few years ago, when Avi Moskowitz wanted advice about which highchair, stroller and car seat to buy for his first child, he didn’t turn to Consumer Reports or let his wife handle the research.
He posted on Daddit, a part of the social networking site Reddit that was formed in 2011 to meet the growing demand of fathers seeking their own cozy corner of the web.
“On Daddit, you get the geekier side of the Internet, where people have done technical research about why this product is better than another product, but I think it also shows that dads are taking on more roles and responsibilities when it comes to parenting,” said Mr. Moskowitz, 27, who works at a security technology company in Ridgefield Park, N.J. Now, he also volunteers as a moderator for Daddit, which has more than 34,000 subscribers — almost twice that of Mommit, Reddit’s site for moms.
