I mean there’s Reddit ofc, as well as Twitter in its entirety, Discord is implementing some dumb updates, there are issues with Tumblr as well as everything to do with Meta, and I’m sure there are plenty more (and I haven’t even touched other digital media, for example the Sims). Why is it all happening in the span of about a couple months?

      Are they, though? Twitter is going a really odd way around making money if that’s their goal. To me, I see it as a mix of a few things: the post 2016/cambridge analytica wave of moderation and institutionalization of safety & responsibility, stagnation, meta’s withdrawal from Facebook as a platform altogether, higher interest rates, and a rising wave of political reaction. Obviously Reddit doesn’t necessarily hit on all of those, but it’s not unaffected, either.
