I’ve never been sentimental about a social media site but it’s sad for me to see reddit so clearly killing itself. Pushshift is already banned and Apollo is soon to follow. Reddit will either pivot fully to a mainstream audience or die out. It’s just sad for me to see it doing it to itself.
Well if you only browse default communities yes. This is very much not the case in niche communities. There are many very small subreddit that are very productive for problem solving.
