Props to everybody here who helped to contribute to that drop just a teeny tiny little bit.
I contributed first by no longer posting there and only rarely lurking on niches that aren't popular here. I am contributing more now that they have blocked old.reddit, because ain't no way I'm even lurking with the new interface.
I completely deleted my Reddit account, which is not a decision I took lightly, after more than 10 years of using that website frequently. I didn't use any of the purge apps, my comments can be fossilized under [deleted] incase it helps anyone.
Makes me wonder if that's a good indication of quality? I highly doubt bot accounts and astroturfers would ever delete their account, it's too valuable for them. Deleted users are kind of verified human in a way.
Unless they get banned
most of reddit is 50% bots anyways, reddit is cannabilizing itself to stay alive.
I went back about a month ago to delve into a pipetobacco community since there's fuckall on the fediverse for anything even remotely similar, and got bored in half a day, found a UBB board and joined it instead, then I left the reddit account to rot.
