I ride it daily.

The platforms at transfer stations are dangerously narrow.

The arrival time signs are often fiction.

Since January, I've been on 4 trains that were offloaded, usually because of door issues.

Yeah the Red Line sucks, but it is still way cheaper than driving downtown and parking.
