Reddit is going bankrupt. For obvious reasons too. The moderation system is absolute trash.

Even if you build a 100% absolutely squeaky clean subreddit, they can take it away from you once you grow. I know of several cases. It's rotten, much worse than late stage dmoz

So they FAFOd and Reddit is now dying. Down 50%, then probably down further soon.

Build something, boss. ;) the time has come. SpicyForum.com? :D

I wonder if it will get acquired by some giant.
 
They ran it like a fiefdom, now they’re reaping what they sowed.
 
Maybe we can all move to Digg? I heard they're rebooting, Digg was the old Reddit before Reddit was Reddit

What a blast from the past. Digg was pretty cool in fact

Except the new digg is gonna be a collab with Reddit
 
Their moderation system really sucks and they are banning new accounts so easily, deserved
 
I love reddit, and I want it to survive! (those that don't are just mad that all their 100 only fans ai spam links got them banned!) lol

man, ain't like that. even if you go clean clean with some new account you end on shadow ban in the most nice scenario ....let's be real, reddit is trash full of frustrated wankers which are guarding the report button. It is a good brand but is managed by some retards.
 
They have so many users. And going bankrupt. The management might be at fault. With that user based, it must be profitable in correct hands.
 
Let's do some crowdfund among us and buy it as a branch of BHW haha

They do have many users but as the poster above mentioned you get shadow banned just for joining the wrong subreddit. Also i heard somewhere that only like 1-10% of users generate 80% of the content so not a lot of engagement and also lost of bots.
 
It's to be expected. Over the last years Reddit has changed so much.

New UI which no one asked for, atrocious prices for their API which closed the doors for most third party apps, CQS, and more changes on the moderators side.

Moderators from US could and did buy in on the IPO, now they are cashing out since there is no trust.

Reddit does monthly enquetes for feedback form moderators but they are not listening to what mods say.
