I joined reddit on the tailwind, so it was all echo chamber, we hate newcomers, gatekeeping, automod frenzy, too many rulebreakers, too many rules, etc I could be wrong, but thats what I imagine it used to be like.

    I also remember constant reminders to vote on the quality of the post, not if you agree or not.

      Haha yeah, I don’t know if that disclaimer is still there, but that totally went out the window in the mid 2010s

        It’s not and that’s because it’s bad for Reddit’s business model in the short term. If you zoom out this is exactly why reddit is on a nose dive over the last 3 years. More. Shit. Content.
