Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it's actually pretty popular.

Do you have some that's really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

Reddit already isn't "fine" so this is just objectively false.

Lol, how are they not fine? Look, I left too, but everything is chugging along over there like nothing happened

It's been visibly, noticeably, and steadily getting worse and worse for years my friend... It's only amazing that it still exists ... They are a shell of their former self

I was just going to say... anyone who thinks Reddit is fine, joined during the wallstreetbets/GME era.

It's like joining Facebook when everyone's mom sent them a friend request and being like, hmm everything looks pretty normal around here.

Reddit has been headed down the crapper long before the exodus happened.

I joined well before GME. I guess your last sentence is the whole point of this discussion. The Exodus, if you could even really call it that hasn't had any real impact on quality. It looks the same to me as it has been

There is a noticeably stark contrast in content quality on that platform now. Whether or not they actually care about it is another matter though
