Does anybody feel like the quality of reddit has already dropped massively? (kbin.social)

I see a lot of comments from bootlickers on how the protests are dumb and stupid and dont work and engagement metrics are still holding but the quality of posts and comments has noticeably depreciated imo. So much so that whenever I visit the site Im actually shocked at how bad it is.

Quality was dropping a ton anyway, but god damn I miss the sports subs.

Even /r/baseball can garner 75-125 comments on some minor post.

Sports always seem like the hardest categories to get content/comments with when it comes to places like these. I remember reddit a decade+ ago and how it seemed like those NFL and NBA subs took a long time to get traction.

It's the toughest part about adopting kbin and Lemmy for me. But fuck it, I like new shit so I might as well try

yeah I'm missing sports subs a lot, I loved the live discussion threads for games/matches

r/MMA mods did create m/MMA on kbin, but once r/MMA opened back up it seems most people ran back to reddit...

also smaller communities like r/iRacing or even the wider simracing community will take some time to build up a userbase on the fediverse

I haven't been able to find a replacement for r/hiphopheads either

EDIT: just searched again and apparently [email protected] does exist, so that's cool!
