I continued to look reddit for reasons, but honestly the feed is deteriorating fast, maybe traffic is back, people posting content, not so much, engagement? Even less, it's like looking to a old mediocre Google News feed.
Fine with me, found a good substitution here after 11 years of reddit
Yeah, I at least personally used to be a bit of a power user and have just stopped posting/upvoting/downvoting altogether, and I'm not even a mod.
Just because people show up does not mean people are engaged.
Engagement is up because an algorithm optimized it.
The algorithm does not care if that engagement is negative or toxic.
