The changes to the API pricing were the final nail in the coffin for me, but the content has been going downhill for a decade anyway.
- zarathustreal 2y agoReddit is a cesspool, at least the standard subreddits. It’s worse than Twitter. It also has a moderation culture that kind of promotes toxic traits and petty power trips. Used to be pretty good for finding niche info, but most of it for my uses was deleted back when everyone left. Can’t imagine still using Reddit nowadays
- EasyMark 2y agoI find decent info in plenty of subs, you just have to stay away from the front page/popular subs, Especially the comments in those items. Total garbage full of people ranting. I give it a go a couple times a year but nothing ever changes. Just people raging at each other.
- yreg 2y agoSure, there's a lot of valuable information and I often append my web searches with “reddit”. But I no longer go to reddit to spend time there, without looking for specific information.
