How reddit crushed the biggest protest in its history: Did it, though? (www.theverge.com)

How is reddit post protest, did it really win over protesters? Did the ones who left make a dent? Or like all things before, did it ultimately do nothing?

Completely anecdotal, but when I had a look at r/all, it looked way less busy and lower quality, full of subs I'd never heard of, and generally...not that great.

There are so many potentially NSFW posts showing up in the main feed because of all the odd subs it is probably a good idea to report them so there are no issues with the advertisers.

A lot more Ai generated posts too. It's to the point to where you see the same phrasings, same idioms and same jokes word for word from different accounts. Or they're just typical redditors and its hard to tell anymore.
