Hmm, i checked out the FP and a few of the subs I used to frequent. Front page seems to have more TikTok style crap than ever, like “guy gets punched!” or “someone makes annoying food!”. Relationship advice: “get divorced!!”.
City subs seem about the same as before. Medical subs I used to read seem about the same and holy shit, am I glad I’m not reading those every day. Same questions and memes that have been rotating through for like 5 years, and the confounding pattern where the community consensus on issues changes from week to week or post to post. One week it’s “this term is offensive and I hate it” and 50 people are “YEAH! That’s right!” and then the next, “don’t you know about this term, it’s perfectly valid” and 30 people are “YEAH! Use your brain if you have one broo!!”. And the questions like “does anyone else with this condition suffer from these extremely common effects that are listed in every medical article about it?” So anyway whether reddit has gotten worse or not, seems like I was ready for something different.
