Question: People who still frequent Reddit, has it gone back to business as usual or are the protests still having effect? - eviltoast

I haven’t gone back since Apollo shut down, and not planning to, but I am curious.

    /r/all has top posts from very obscure subreddits now

    My Frontpage has much much less churn.

    As long as we keep making this place good and active, it will be attractive. With the increased spam bots and degraded moderation, people will start looking elsewhere

      That’s what I’ve experienced as well. My home feed is stagnant and r/all has lots of subs I’ve never seen. I spend much less time there and I’ve stopped upvoting anything. I dropped Premium in June since it’s clear /u/spez doesn’t need the money anymore now that 3rd party apps aren’t sucking him dry.

      I’ve noticed this too. Posts from obscure subs with few dozens of comments on /r/all, with not that really interesting content.
