user experience has always suffered on social media sites that go public and answer to profits they stop caring about the community. and only try selling us shit or sell the content we create. without us reddit wouldnt exist and they need a reminder of that.
- bobthepanda 3y agoso far, the issue has been engagement results in ad impressions, and the quickest way to engagement is controversy and anger. The death knell for Facebook was when it became people arguing all the time. Toxicity is just generally not pleasant to be around. Ad quality also doesn't help. Major network TV ads are generally higher quality both in terms of the product they're selling and the production quality, but I don't want to see the millionth ad for meal prep startup of the week or questionable unitasker dropshipped off Aliexpress.
- micv 3y agoThe user experience of reddit is already poor unless you hide on old.reddit.com. I have no idea how anyone could sign off an interface like the new one, which is just appallingly slow even on relatively high-end hardware.
