I don’t really hang out on Reddit anymore; I mostly get the impression that he crushed a mod rebellion from stories like these that refer to a mod rebellion.
I’d say these two comments rather contradict each other. Reddit doesn’t care about the quality, they care about their active user count
People giving up and still adding to that count in large numbers is what “crushing the rebellion” looks like, even if they’re doing it ironically or judgementally
I imagine that this public reddit doesn’t care about that; They are instead interested tn engagement and sinjing to the lowest common denominator. Quality control only matters when it hurts engagement.
All too accurate, the apicalypse was just another step to change the demographic of Reddit from users posting good and interesting content but demanding features and complaining about bugs to users posting acceptable content while not complaining as much about bugs and missing features.
He didn’t crush any rebellion?
I still read reddit, and the content has taken a big dive since the Apicalypse
I barely visit Reddit now, but the odd times I have done, the ratio of signal to noise seems to be the worst it’s ever been.
Increasingly I’m left feeling that what I used to get from Reddit isn’t even there anymore

Ah, that makes more sense…
