Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it's actually pretty popular.

Do you have some that's really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

Reddit is gonna be just fine and the shade we like to throw around here isn't even a blip on their radar

    This thread has almost 1400 replies, thats getting up there towards reddit levels of traffic. They are OK in the short term but the damage has been done and there is now a big viable alternative with decent amounts of traffic. I have noticed it is definitely quieter there

    Too true but keep in mind lemmy isn't supposed to be a replacement. Reddit hoppers want it to be.

    Reddit already isn't "fine" so this is just objectively false.

    It's been visibly, noticeably, and steadily getting worse and worse for years my friend... It's only amazing that it still exists ... They are a shell of their former self

    I was just going to say... anyone who thinks Reddit is fine, joined during the wallstreetbets/GME era.

    It's like joining Facebook when everyone's mom sent them a friend request and being like, hmm everything looks pretty normal around here.

    Reddit has been headed down the crapper long before the exodus happened.

    I joined well before GME. I guess your last sentence is the whole point of this discussion. The Exodus, if you could even really call it that hasn't had any real impact on quality. It looks the same to me as it has been

    Sort of. I think it will never regain the edge of sole it every had one the past, and it will evolve to something lmore on par with Facebook in that a generation will continue to use it but the next generation will forget it.
