MODERATORS
This whole fediverse thing is a bit strange after 10 years of rif. But Reddit was going downhill for quite a while. Hope this takes off!
And reddit still has a long way down. Look at Facebook, it never died, it just lost most young users and it grew stale with conspiracy theories, blind hatred and fake news.
It's the walmart-ification of social media. They're self sustaining because of their size, but that's not enough to make them an enjoyable experience. Just corporate, sterile, and lots of bored people.
I prefer "Enshitification".
It's like buying from a supermarket and getting pretty much everything in one stop (most of it being mediocre) VS getting local, yummy, Bio, more expensive products from 5 local small shops.
