    Reddit is already ruined and has been for a while. And it’s been ruined by the greedy Reddit CEO.

      Yep. It was headed downhill with the bots, reposts, karma farmers, hive-mind, troll farms, and of course the reddit c-suite “purging” the site of things like WPD, morbid reality, spacedicks (yeah, not subs for everyone, but noetheless…not hurting anyone), getting rid of Victoria, getting rid of mods and leaving petty power mongers and sycophants in place, and allowing shit like The_Donald and similar subs to run unchecked. The forced commercialization, crushing of protest and reddit app was the final straw.

      Yeah AI had nothing to do with it. Ruined waaay before AI took hold. That’s why I left.

      The UI was becoming unusable, the policies were unreasonable, the greed got to them, etc, etc.
