Looks like Reddit is removing the ability to opt out of personalized advertisements. (reddit.com)

At the moment my main gripe is that people still refuse to move to other platforms despite it all. I want to scream "It's not going to get better, folks!" at them all of the time. But I am too tired to do it.

I wonder would one reason be that if "the most" of the community is there, it's just better to be there with the folks and the content rather than take a leap to a much smaller place and feel small or lonely or something like that...

(I haven't used kbin/lemmy for more than an hour - seeing whether this is a new place to stay)

Yes, of course. The network effect is buoying up Reddit as it is and probably will be until a critical mess of users leave it for good. Besides the obvious truth that Lemmy/Kbin are slower and that's not what Redditors are used to who have learned to expect something new every time they update their frontpage.
