Article from August of this year (not too cancerous once you get through the first two splash screens).

Reddit shares DROPPED despite increase revenue. Why? Objective signs of enshittification:

  • declining active user base
  • massive increases in revenue.

People are leaving so the ones that remain must be more heavily monetized, which leads to more people leaving--the enshittification death spiral.

Reddit will no longer be reporting logged-in users as a separate metric lol

Same here, after years of use with no problems, AI mods and overzealous human mods started banning users all over the place.

AI mods by individual subs, and reddits own filtering system. they even begun detecting the newer evasion methods, that spammers use.

What were you suspended over? Did it even make sense? What were you discussing otherwise?

[-] Canajan@piefed.ca 2 points 5 days ago

I voiced my displeasure at the Americans current government, and they kept saying I was breaking Reddits rules. This was crazy as I saw worse comments than mine constantly.

Yeah, I noticed the same. I'm wondering if you crossed a certain line. I can easily imagine a political group monitoring certain accounts and reporting anything even remotely reportable. Like, in my case, I strongly suspect that being anti-Zionist put me on a list.

Watch Reddit die. Pray for Reddit to die. Help Reddit die.

Rules

  1. No Reddit shills or trolls. But if you have a good argument for why Reddit should live, we'll hear you out.
  2. Try to be civil and intelligent. Be angry at Reddit, not each other.
  3. Provide evidence as much as possible without doxxing or harassing people.
  4. Should probably avoid linking directly to Reddit. Use archive.today and archive.org links.

Will add more rules as needed.

If you're concerned that your post might be astroturfed/brigaded by pro-reddit individuals, give us mods a heads up beforehand, and we'll try to monitor the thread.
