Sound Off: How many 10+ year redditors have left the site?
I was just browsing a thread on c/nfl looking for new mods. There were multiple 12+ year Redditors there offering to help.
Got me wondering. There are 14,000 of us in this community. How many of us are ten year plus users who have just had enough?
Edit: I didn't expect this post to be as poignant as it became. There are so many of you... I can't reply to everyone. I'm an 11 year user and have modded something like 150 subs over the years. I'm really sad too, but I'm finding that lemmy has most of the content I'm looking for, just needs more comments.
The API was a big blow, but removing awards on past posts and deleting coin balances is really dumb.
15 years with the account and lurked since 2005, basically from the beginning. Sad to see it turned into a complete shitshow. But the quality of the content, especially in the bigger subreddits has been declining long before that. It started going downhill with the popularity around 2015-2017 with the influx of new users. The discourse got a lot worse and briganded(?) and I lost the charm that it had in the early days. I am never using the site ever again out of principle. I got over Usenet and IRC, Reddit will also be eventually replaced.
