Does anybody feel like the quality of reddit has already dropped massively? (kbin.social)

I see a lot of comments from bootlickers on how the protests are dumb and stupid and dont work and engagement metrics are still holding but the quality of posts and comments has noticeably depreciated imo. So much so that whenever I visit the site Im actually shocked at how bad it is.

I felt Reddit's quality started going downhill around 2021, which is not long after ~~they introduced the official app and~~ started allowing Google logins.

EDIT: Looks like the official app's been around longer than I thought. :O

Is the official app really that new??? I thought it was around since way before.

It turns out it came out in 2016. I was thinking 2018, but I was wrong. https://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/official-reddit-app/

In a way, it's been even longer than that, since they bought out Alien Blue in 2014, according to Wikipedia

Oh, that timing makes more sense haha all this time and the app still sucks balls.
