i might be one of a dozen reading this when i say that i am actually using less of reddit nowadays.
i more or less stopped actively using the site directly after their third-party app crackdown.
you may see reddit as an alternative to the ai-written or paid-for opinion on the internet, but the opinion itself has not been very balanced in most subreddits i've seen for many years now. the quality of discourse there for polarizing topics is what i fear the most for this site.
although with discord servers now you got an even worse environment because of its more exclusive nature and the relative power the moderators/admins yield. so i can see why it might be the happy medium until reddit entirely switches to the twitter/quora model.
