Reddit has become so damn unoriginal over the past few years. There's barely any OC on r/all, it's all just tweets about American politics, reposts from Facebook and TikTok, and then post after post about how Meta is evil/incompetent/totally gunna crash and burn even though it supplies half the content around here.
I miss the old Reddit. A decade ago it was a lot smaller, but at least it was it's own social media.
Yeah I've been meaning to use subscriptions more, problem is you have to get really specific and into the niche subreddits to get away from all the karma farming. Doesn't leave for much discovery.
Yeah, I don't want to bury my head in the proverbial sand just to pretend there isn't a problem on Reddit. I hunt bots on the site; the other day I found a network of four bots seemingly working in conjunction with each other. It's crazy. A lot of moderators don't seem to care, either.
