Reddit died with Aaron. The fact you're still trying to milk Internet points from that site, using Reddit-style, low effort posting, only reveals you're the kind of user that ruined it in the first place.

MODERATORS
Random Rant: I feel like reddit died after they banned all the "unmoderated" communities. All the posts became sanitized. Now reddit is adding AI and streaks and NFTs to keep people on a platform that has no more content.
Aaron was about as much a cofounder of reddit as Musk is a cofounder of tesla. Source: I was on reddit when he joined and I remember his own yc-startup Infogami.

I just got an automatic 3 day ban (presumably because my comment contained the word "murder") so I said "fuck it", deleted my comments and posts, and deleted my account
I check back here often but I still much prefer Reddit over Lemmy. I’m still using a modded Apollo though.
I did too, but /u/me got banned also so I'm here a lot more. And bsky.
I recently checked out the front page out of curiosity. It was really weak, meme wise, and content wise, i didn't scroll more than 2 pages. I understand that the niche communities are the best part but there isn't anything enticing to me there anymore.
You have an account on reddit, but you're not a bot? That's a banning!
I was banned for reporting trolls. They called it "abuse of the report button."

I'll admit the streaks kept me hooked to at least checking in daily. Then I got a permaban so I couldn't do streaks anymore so I stopped using the site.
