The quality of Reddit has been declining for the last ~5 years. Even if you ignore all the shady shit Reddit themselves have done, the platform has been declining due to simple popularity. Simple-brained people joining and upvoting memes and reposts and fucking TikToks. There's also just the toxicity of society in general. There used to be honest discussions and nuance and input from industry experts. Now it's incredibly corporate, and hardcore liberal, and full of the same toxicity as Twitter.
It used to be mostly Libertarians and Atheists, kinda like how Lemmy is all sysadmins and Linux enthusiasts.
But Linux enthusiasts could be Atheists, too. Oh wait, I forgot about the church of GNU and TempleOS.
