browsing any major, big subreddit will reveal that it’s users are no better than the average facebook, twitter, or tiktok user. have you looked at /r/all or /r/popular in the past… 3-4 years? it’s all garbage. i think the reality is that an extremely small percentage of people bother setting up a real home page, unsubbing from all the default subreddits, and having a tailored experience more akin to forums is just not what people want anymore- they want a black box “algorithm” to push rage bait and ads at them.
