    I spent ten years on Reddit. I can use that to compare for myself the amount of engagement then and now.

    If most of the users are not bots I would be so surprised. I think they lost a huge percentage of traffic and are now knowingly faking live user counts

      I was there for 10 years myself and I fully agree. I think peak Reddit was during the age of the novelty accounts; it still felt new & fun, like you were a part of something no one knew about, even though everybody knew about it.
