One of the things that made the jump easy for me was that Reddit's kind of already devolved to that state. I've started to notice that most of Reddit's content is automatically generated. Bots even synergize to the point where one bot will repost an old top post while other bots repost the top comments from the old post. Lately I've been seeing weirdly generic and hollow comments that just look like they came from a pool of sentences, or like they were generated by Chat-GPT. And Reddit has long encouraged this trend such as by admitting they approve of free karma subreddits, solely because they make it easier for new users to circumvent spam filters. I don't think they care about quality as long as bots are increasing the total user count. It's a localized example of the dead internet theory.
Even if spez was ousted, all these API changes rolled back, and Reddit never made another decision based on corporate greed, I still just don't really care for what Reddit's become. These changes are the simple manifestations of what Reddit's been aiming to do for years, and I don't see any reason to stay and hope things get better when they're already so bad and get invariably worse.
