I keep going back. Not the level of user before all this spez is a twat shit, but enough that I still cannot deny I have an addiction.
What I have noticed is that the quality of content and users has plummeted. Tons of the people who always complained about reddit being an echo chamber and the worst place in the world for free speech are now louder than ever posting some pretty racist shit and and it just gets worse from there.
Even google users have been reported as upset with the content that is coming up in searches.
Depending on which subs you see, the assholes have won. Holy shit the amount of right wing bullshit that got into the place. Like wallstreet silver. I didn’t much give a shit before it started looking like the front page of diet stormfront.
The remaining mods are at large, S class window lickers and ableist who have been applying to get a position for years and just now get their chance to goatse the corpse of what was once a great website. Started seeing tons of people getting banned for the most petty of shit. Buddy of mine got a 30 day ban for linking another sub reddit in his comment.
Of course, I got banned too. on my 12th cake day no less, for saying a kids attitude was going to get him beat up in high school or worse.
But if anything, there are so many folks out there that can say they were there before they got spez’d and the assholes took over. It was nice for a while, but in the end, fuck reddit.
