    I was on reddit for 12 years. My time spent on that platform and posting directly correlates to when I first found it (posted a lot) vs. when I quit earlier this year.

    Reddit in it's infancy was great and the users and the subreddits, with a few notable exceptions were great too.

    Once it got too big/popular... About 6 years ago you could note the decline and quality of the posting
