    I clicked on an AskReddit link in google earlier today and wow the posts that receive engagement there now… From the little I’ve seen since leaving, reddit in general has dropped off a fuckin cliff in regards to content quality

      I seen that too. It has become especially apparent on a small sub I still view as it didn’t really migrate.

      It went from people in their 20s discussing shared experiences with a medical condition, with the occasional high schooler dropping by to ask something. To babys first experiences, with condition. Absolutely filled to the brim with 13-17 year olds.

      I’m fine with them being there and asking questions and talking, but not when every post and comment is just more teenage drama.

      I seen a similar thing on another sub, while that has always screwed younger then the first, it definitely feels like it dropped like 5 years in average age.
