I'm posting here because yesterday evening I decided to open kbin after a month or so to check if it still kind of sucks, and it still does, so I'm not one shilling this place. But reddit has gotten much worse in the last 6 months. Dumber, less moderated usually in the bad way (because when it's already dumb, less moderation doesn't help), and the last major issue for me is that they started using their own version of "the algorithm" - an algorithm that pushes things you don't necessarily like for more engagement. The frontpage suddenly contains like twice as many controversial and ragebait subs. And some subs that used to get a ton of organic engagement are pushed down, for example posts at /r/polandball get about 5x - 10x fewer upvotes than before.

I do not have a sane alternative for Reddit, but if you think it's just fine, your standards are low and/or you haven't been there very long.

Try lemmy, it's pretty okay.

I do not understand the idea that forcing stuff on you that you're not interested in would increase engagement. It just makes me disappointed and I leave. Facebook has been doing that for a long time now, and as a result, I hardly ever go there anymore. How does that strategy make sense to them from a business perspective? Is it all paid content or something?
