After a year away from Reddit, scrolling through the comments there is a dumpster fire. Let it burn.
I had an account for 15 years, moderated a number of subs, and I do not in any way regret leaving.
It’s so sad. Reddit still comes up in my search results and I’ll check them out if I’m in a pinch. Most of these results are years old. Rarely ever get a result that’s within the last 2 years.
They were spinning gold.
They could have improved user experience, made better mod tools and built a fucking native app that competed with third party apps.
But nope.
Line must go up.
Their goal at this point is to monetize old user content.
Agreed.
