I’ve never been sentimental about a social media site but it’s sad for me to see reddit so clearly killing itself. Pushshift is already banned and Apollo is soon to follow. Reddit will either pivot fully to a mainstream audience or die out. It’s just sad for me to see it doing it to itself.

      Reddit needs to die unfortunately. The last 5 years of development was spent on shitty stickers and nfts that no one will even remember. The project has zero vision, no wonder they want to cash out.

          Good point. The main issue with Reddit is that producing original content is really difficult and TikTok like take - where making content is as easy as humanly possible - could be very refreshing.
