I’d say these two comments rather contradict each other. Reddit doesn’t care about the quality, they care about their active user count
People giving up and still adding to that count in large numbers is what “crushing the rebellion” looks like, even if they’re doing it ironically or judgementally
I imagine that this public reddit doesn’t care about that; They are instead interested tn engagement and sinjing to the lowest common denominator. Quality control only matters when it hurts engagement.
All too accurate, the apicalypse was just another step to change the demographic of Reddit from users posting good and interesting content but demanding features and complaining about bugs to users posting acceptable content while not complaining as much about bugs and missing features.
I don’t really hang out on Reddit anymore; I mostly get the impression that he crushed a mod rebellion from stories like these that refer to a mod rebellion.
If modern social media trends have shown us anything, it’s that content quality could be shit and it doesn’t matter if there will be thousands - if not millions- of people swarming to view it.
Nothing against you btw, it’s just a general frustration I have with trying to move focus away from these sites
