Yeah, like your experience with Facebook is largely dependent on your IRL contacts using it. If your friends and family still use it, you might not even notice that it sucks, cuz you are by default more likely to be interested in their normal life shit. But individual connections aren't really relevant on Reddit. I don't even know if any of my IRL friends use it. My experience with it depends entirely on strangers posting good content. If those strangers stop, then Reddit sucks for everyone.

I can hear this meme.

I was never able to post anything to Showerthoughts, and not for lack of trying. One time the automod even said my post was unoriginal despite me having already done a Google search for it. This was before AI got big, so I can only imagine they had some super advanced AI that could understand context and make judgements.

Anyway, I unsubbed after seeing the 5th repost of the same old showerthought content and never looked back.

Yeah it really went from "This is your community. You created it and can run it how you want. Reddit is just a collection of loosely-connected, privately-run forums" to "This is my subreddit and I expect you to work for free making it nice for me, even though you created it."

Even better is that we can add our own. Woodchippers, anyone?
