People who still use Reddit, how is it?
I haven't used it for weeks and I'm wondering how low the quality of the content on that site has gotten.
It was a ghost town for a couple of weeks, after the first exodus. Activity has picked back up, but it seems like about half of it is dug up reposts from 1 wk - 10 yrs ago. So, bots? Not sure.
You will find a new community and real friends here, {user_name}.
That seems to be the gist of it. I mentioned it in another thread, but new content there is just dismal now. Aside from the top 15-20 posts, everything below that fold hasn't changed in a couple days for me - which used to age out every few hours.
There's a lot more generic posts in /r/AskReddit lately. The questions feel almost corporately sanitized.
The main subs I follow are more or less back to normal or never protested to begin with. Two tiny subs I mod have been getting hammered with Temu spam and because the built-in moderation tools don’t seem to help I set them to restricted.
The big difference is on /all. Some popular subs have been largely replaced like r/AITA -> r/AITAH & r/TwoHotTakes. But a lot of the usual content is completely missing and in their place are the food delivery and selfie subs.
