honestly, i don't know anyone that really uses reddit's chat feature. most communities have their own discord server by now.

  They just discontinued subreddit chat rooms too, which was a massive embarrassing back-tracking on a highly controversial feature. https://www.reddit.com/r/modnews/comments/jwme40/deprecating_community_chat_rooms/ https://www.reddit.com/r/modnews/comments/jwme40/deprecating... Reddit's whole philosophy with chat was just to shove it down everyone's throats, and see if it sticks. The spammers loved it right from the get-go, but nobody else is using it.

    thank god. i got spammed so hard by it for a while -- and the worst part is that there was no way to avoid said spam.

      I stopped checking it because 95% of it was harrassment for modding.

      As far as I can tell the personal chats, where most of the spam comes from, are still there.
