I left a couple of months ago. Couldn't be happier.

The writing is on the wall. The leader thinks the Genius-with-hair-transplants is a superstar, despite destroying a globally recognised brand. Inspired by this, Spez is trying to get Reddit ready for an IPO. This means, maximise profits by any means.

It’s absolutely insane to me that anyone would have ever spent money on that shithole of a site, let alone $300 on worthless jerkoff tokens

I honestly find it worse then NFTs. With NFTs you're only destroying the environment a little bit and supporting much smaller mom & pop ponzi schemers. With Reddit you're supporting a mega corporation that is actively harmful to a much wider population.
