MODERATORS
That article measured the drop off by comment volume. Going by the 90-9-1 heuristic, the 10% of the really active "power users" left. Also judging by the fact that a dogshit repost sub like mademesmile is what's hitting top of reddit consistently now indicates to me that the 1% of content creators have also peaced out. I see quite a lot of original content on lemmy. Kinda feels like reddit 2012ish levels of content. Not completely endless, but enough to take a good long shit.
Yeah I've been kind of browsing both reddit and Lemmy for awhile, but over time in getting super tired of the constant boring/obvious AITAH and just teenage relationship advice spam that floods the frontpage. Definitely has made me open reddit less, and really just for specific communities I can't find elsewhere.
