It certainly hasn't been about the podcast/conspiracy culture for a while. I'm an r/TA refugee so perhaps things have changed but it really seems like the inevitable forces of reddit finally catching up with them. Memorable posters like throwaway numbers or opencommune disappearing, refugees from the latest banned 'left' subreddit not integrating, a lot of reaction/image stuff instead of interesting text posts, multi-thread discourse, etc. It's reddit.
