        I still look stuff up there once in a while but I have an auto redirect to libreddit/redlib so I never have to get spied on or advertised to by reddit directly. I used to have an account mainly for hobby stuff and r/acidmarxism but even the hobby stuff was full of insufferable redditors in the comments.

        The last thing keeping me there was sports subreddits – there was (and probably still is) some decent discussion and good bits.

        For a number of reasons, that stuff really started losing the battle against talk radio level comments and low-effort memes. At some point they made it much harder to view the old site on mobile and I just said fuck it and deleted my account. Even if I could view the site easily, at some point being on a forum that thinks the sky is falling at the slightest hint of adversity wears pretty thin.
