It’s hard to put my finger on the exact problems but it feels worse than the typical decline of large subs.

This thread posted today in response to the protest shows a lot of what I mean: https://old.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/14cbtjv/who_here_is_in_favor_of_just_replacing_these_shit/

Mob mentality, selfishness, scapegoating, lack of critical thinking… It’s just so toxic compared to where it was even a year ago.

I’m excited at the prospect of building a more positive, welcoming place here to discuss the NBA.

    just my opinion, but a mix of serious discussion AND memes is fine. /r/nbadiscussion was a bit too earnest and serious, at least for me. I think I actually felt more at home on /r/nbacirclejerk 😅
