See also The Atlantic, "The Dead-Internet Theory" August 2021: <https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2021/08/dead-internet-theory-wrong-but-feels-true/619937/ https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2021/08/dead-...> Discussed at the time (38 comments): <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28379872 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28379872> The Atlantic piece has a different focus --- that much of the Internet (both Web and other venues) are fake, whilst the Reddit piece addresses both that and the fact that true organic sites are getting harder to find. But yes, the slide's been commented on widely for years now. And by "years", I'd argue that the Atlantic's piece itself came after years of that slide.
