Reddit is dying anyway.
In all the ways that matter, it's already dead. Once something enshittifies beyond a certain point, is its zombified, shambling corpse really considered "alive" anymore?
It’s Digg v…5 6? v5 would be when they inflated all post scores and stopped showing upvotes and downvotes separately.
v6 is… gestures to the all of it
It's easy to say this as someone who is "on the other side". But the data doesn't really back up that statement.
I don't have data, but the quality of the content certainly seemed to be declining, even as the quantity went up.
I think autocorrect might've gotten you: You posted "quality" twice in a contradictory way.
Fixed.
It’s awful. Politics is unavoidable at this point, and the amount of general anger on the platform is crazy.
People love watching their videos of people getting TBIs… Or getting too excited about a “justice served” post where a woman gets hit.
It’s kinda nice to see someone get their comeuppance, but then you look in the comments and there are just weirdos saying stuff like “glad that bitch got hit”, like… wtf?
