Agreed. I think there has been a mass exodus from reddit in the last few weeks. The quality of content there has gone down, and the quality of content here has slid as well as reddit's users bring their brand of news to the site.

- petercooper 17y agoAgreed. I think there has been a mass exodus from reddit in the last few weeks. To where? People don't tend to just quit their social media addictions en masse. I'm asking mostly because I don't want to miss out if there's a new cool site on the block ;-) As a regular Redditor, I'd say the quality of stuff hitting the front page/the "reddit.com" reddit has been a bit lower these last few weeks, but the more mature individual subreddits have remained pretty good.
- thaumaturgy 17y agoHopefully they're working on new social media addictions. I quit Reddit almost a year ago, and have rarely looked back since. In the case of HN -- my last "addiction" -- I've written a nice RSS reader in the usual LAMP-AJAX way, so I'm getting the articles sans comments and karma, and in a better presentation, which is nice. I'm now only visiting HN itself if I think there might be interesting enough discussion on a topic to warrant the effort.
