Good. At this point reddit is just a weak sauce place for bots/marketers to post where other bots/marketers scrape them. It’s rumored that 10% of their revenue is from content deals with Google. At this point, most of the interesting communities on reddit have gone elsewhere and it’s long ago jumped the shark.
It’s clear that the corporate goons in charge are busy just trying to squeeze any remaining nickles out of the userbase. At this rate it won’t be long before a private equity firm buys reddit and you start seeing articles “Reddit: what happened?”
Too bad, it was a site that used to be so good and was sold out 5 ways to Monday and the corporate overlords have fucked it again.
At least lemmy is around… it doesn’t have the scale of reddit but it’s way better in a lot of ways already.
