reddit has always been dying to people who have been using reddit for a long time, but don't see how that's even remotely true
as someone who has used reddit for 7+ years now, the culture is definitely very different (not necessarily good) - but it has only continued to grow in terms of users
- okasaki 5y agoBut it does feel like it's dying. For example r/linux has "679169 readers", but if you go to the /new page you'll see it has only had 16 submissions in the past day. New users are automoderated and shadowbanned to hell. There are subreddits where the experienced users with new accounts go and users upvote each other until they have enough karma to post where they want.
- Chris2048 5y ago> it has only continued to grow in terms of users accounts, yes - but how many of those are users? versus bots and marketeers?
- iammisc 5y ago> but it has only continued to grow in terms of users That's because I make a new account everytime I'm doxxed, banned, or censored. Now that you mention it, I realize that the reddit blocking, censoring and quarantining system basically is a free way to drive up their 'new user' count. What a joke of a website and a company. Cannot wait til it dies.
