I just can't bring myself to use it anymore. It just makes me so sad and disgusted. I used to browse daily. I feel bad for the people still on there seemingly unaware how much they are being taken advantage of and how little the platform cares for them.
The ~~roof~~ reddit, the ~~roof~~ reddit, the ~~roof~~ reddit is on fire
We don't need no water let the motherfucker burn
I’m not surprised. The user interface for mobile has just gotten awful, and losing third party apps was the last nail in the coffin for me. Within a day I couldn’t stand the official app and went to other sites.
It was pretty obvious from looking at /r/all that upvotes and comments are way down. Posts from somewhat obscure subreddits are making it to the front page, something you never saw before. People may be reading, but they're not participating as much as before.
Yup. Still, having someone to actually measure it is nice.
And based on the Reddark site, obscure subreddits were likely affected even harder, as plenty of them are still restricted or private (since Reddit doesn't care about those).
YouTube is strong because it has an evergreen library. Reddit relies on the present. That makes it much easier to change platform.
It's only hard for me to keep up with sports discussion without reddit but whatever.
I'm happy to see that the big German communities declined by more than half, and went from growth to decline
