FB is a desert compared with the old days, and Twitter will get there as well. Maybe the "AI revolution" can replace all the organic human content with fake people, but that's about their only chance long term. If you can even call such a thing a "win".

I'll say. The kings of proprietary code grifting, but they sure want YOU to share all your code on GH, which they own (so that corporations can rip and run with it).
Yes. Truthfully for the last 2-3 years I have been dismayed with the direction social media in general were going, not only Reddit. Here were the 3 major issues I had: 1- lower quality of content & the volume of bad content drowning out the good, 2- the corruption of the companies themselves, and 3- the toxic social environment with nasty behavior becoming the norm. I think that fragmenting the web into smaller and more distributed communities, with a slower pace, will probably be a good thing at this point in time.
PS I'm happy to admit the web has always had a dark side, but it had gotten noticeably much worse in recent years.
Thanks. Never heard of that one but it made my goddanged day!
