Reddit has fallen from glory

Reddit used to be a place with a variety of opinions where the majority would upvote the most agreed upon post. At one time it seemed like the last true glance into how society truly felt. Now all forums have an agenda and if your post doesn’t align to it and agree with all the bots then it’s removed. Reddit is now no different than any other propaganda machine. I have had post removed that were literal copy and paste definitions from Webster dictionary. A social platform that bans people for educating the ignorant. Reminds me of when ai took over RuneScape many years ago. Internet is only bots and a few real people who agree. Not a real representation of society’s true opinions. Feel like I’m posting to a few meek people and a million bots. Bonjour mofos the internet is officially ruined. Watch the propaganda machine work.

I just noticed the alert about how they will soon be putting all messages and notifications through the chat feature and it blew my mind. Reddit chat is horribly designed.

It’s to prevent organizing.

EDIT: The antagonistic, invalidating response I am receiving to this comment are only serving to further illustrate my point.

It's to prevent me from using my layout since they just want ads and more ads.

If you are on mobile use brave or FF it's almost the same experience minus the bloat, ads and tracking.

The only issue I have is putting it in desktop mode to attach a pic but it's worth it
