Also worth noting that reddit control the metrics that they release for a lot of this.
There’s no real measure of good engagement vs shallow engagement, so they can find a way to show that user visits are up even if the worthwhile content is starting its slow slide. Shit, i probably used to visit reddit once a day for 12 hours, but now i visit 5 times a day when i instinctively enter the URL.
So the metrics that reddit controls are showing that things are going down. How bad must things be that even reddit can’t hide it from their metrics now?
If we could truly measure good vs shallow engagement, I wonder how much worse these numbers would be.
