It’s not dead…but it’s certainly an enshitified: husk of itself.

The way I described Reddits’ current state to somebody who asked was: “A bunch of bulletin board/chat rooms moderated by wanna be despots…all of whom rely on an overarching AI moderator that’s constantly sniping users and handing out bans for benign content. In between Ads and bots trying to instigate you or farm your clicks.”

it’s basically turned into a weird Orwellian advertisement delivery service. All the mods who turned their pages black should have just left.
