Well shucks, all they did was drive out their most active content makers and cut themselves off from hundreds of thousands of dollars in free moderation labor. Who could possibly have seen this coming?
Don't be fooled. Most went back.
I was active nearly every day for 13 years, and I didn’t return. Granted, I don’t come here much either, but what Reddit did disgusted me too much.
Same except I was at about 10 years. I don't even find it useful to include "reddit" in my Google searches as many communities are locked down unless you sign in to an account. Can't say I feel too bad for them.
