Title says it all. If you think Reddit’s been trending down lately, just wait.
You must log in or register to comment.
Reddit now:
What’s your all-time favorite video game?
u/totallynormaluser: “I’m sorry, but as an AI language model, I don’t have personal preferences or emotions, so I don’t have the ability to have a favorite video game.”
What Reddit fails to understand with their decades of industry experience and 2k employees is that without their users, they don’t have a product. Moderators work for free. Creators work for free. These people didn’t do it for Reddit. They did it for you and me.
And then like three developers in their spare time ate their lunch.
And yet, with all that supposed experience they still fail to maintain a decent platform.
There’s a reason nobody uses their official app.
Most people use their official app
Most people probably just interact with it through the browser via google searches.
Nah, nearly 90% of mobile users interact with Reddit via the official app (most people use Reddit on mobile devices).
Where did you get either of those statistics?
These numbers have been thrown around since the beginning of the protest. I don’t believe Reddit actually publishes that data (someone can come and correct me if wrong).
I think what happened is someone did the math on downloads for all the 3PA (or maybe just just major ones) and compared it to active users.
Fact is, no one knows just how many users used 3PA vs the official app except for reddit. Me thinks because the data doesn’t look good for them, otherwise why not back up all that boasting with numbers.
As if Reddit isn’t already a shit show now… just wait. It’ll be overrun with bots.
Maybe that’s the plan, charge the bots to talk to each other
Close.
- Make people have to sign up to use Reddit
- Have bots do the work of people by reposting old top posts
- ???
- Profit
