Reddit Migration

Reddit turned into a highly political site littered with celebrity culture and rage. You go to r/all and it's all just look at this group of people, they are evil! Anything contrary to that opinion is heavily down voted and people were even advocating for violence. Of course nobody got banned. It's basically facebook for younger people now.

I'm having this feeling way before the whole API story came out. At least the bigger subreddits were getting repetitive and boring, take AskReddit for example, in the past years you had the same 3 questions about dating, celebrities and what to do with with $ 1 million and every combination of that.

Some subreddits staid engaging and diverse, but most are just repetitive echo chambers.

Imagine using r/all in 2023 😷

The occasional time I get on there, yes. It's a bunch of reposts. There's no substance what so ever and there seems to be a lot of arguing in the comments.

Who checks reddit anymore? I don't check the site at all. even if they did let third party apps back u/spez could always go back on his word. lemmy and the #fediverse where here to catch us when we became stranded!

reddit has been going down hill for over a decade at this point. if something better was a available it would have died a long time ago

I don't know, because I'm normally here rather than there, but you could test and find out. Take some screenshots before and after and do a double-blind test to see if you can tell.

I think it depends on the sub. I went back a day or two ago and while the big, usual suspects are shit tier, the more niche subs are still quality discussion. But that’s to be expected, I guess.

I still enjoy /r/cfb and /r/collegebaseball

Otherwise, it seems the entire site has devolved into nothing but new bot accounts posting from the big book of repetitive karma gaining questions on /r/AskReddit. Seems everything else is a ghost town.
