The 3rd party app-ocalypse made me create an account here but it was the reddit ads that eventually made me quit the Reddit app. At some point I realised more of my feed was taken up by autoplay video ads than actual content. The slow decline in intelligent conversations really accelerated after they killed the apps too.
So far I like it here, there’s less content and that can be a bit disappointing but it’s probably healthier that I can’t scroll endlessly. It’s also nice to feel like your posts don’t get buried under a torrent of other content the moment you make them.
