The content was incredibly boring. That site is already going downhill. I came right back to Lemmy and immediately was more entertained. You’re all much funnier and more creative. I feel like Reddit had a brain drain after the protest.

Every popular sub on Reddit is the same four questions or topics posted over and over again. It is like users are unable to read any previous posts. I’ve seen old time users writing basically the same comment on multiple posts for years, and then new people would come and ask the same bloody question again. This convinced me to never post anything of value on Reddit. It just drowns in a sea of comments and will never be read again.
It depends on the subreddit but often this is encouraged by locking threads after a certain amount of time, meaning new comments are no longer possible. What’s more is that serving ads is a core component of Reddit’s business model and this works best if there is a constant stream of “new content” that can be injected with different ads according to the sponsor of the day.
