I have occasionally checked my former favorite sub since leaving - the stats are still the same (~900k users) but the content has gone downhill in a very obvious way. Each time I checked, the sub was filled to the brim with lazy, unfunny shitposts, extremely obvious t-shirt scammers and repost bots, offtopic content, conterfeit merch and sometimes an actually interesting post with like 12 upvotes or so, and you would have to dig quite deep to reach it.
And the sub creator seems to have abandoned it entirely. The description still says that the sub has gone private due to spez’ decisions and that you need to use discord instead (the sub has been public again since the initial protest, just the description was never updated) and they haven’t touched their own sub in 3+ months.
PS: I just checked again and they have a 2 day old screenshot of a dead frog with 2k upvotes as the current top post.

Wow, I don’t like reddit anymore, but that sounds sad. I still remember good times there a few years back. 😐
