I used to be a hard core Reddit user for probably 10 years. I havent used it in maybe 2 years; I have no interest. People like me are probably showing up in their user data and the writing is on the wall internally. Thats when you go public to dump the bag.

Their biggest mistake maybe?...controversy and discussion sells and they essentially banned that subreddit by subreddit. People dont like information platforms with information gaps.



> People dont like information platforms with information gaps.

Is there evidence of this? I want to believe this is true but the era of cancel culture and deplatforming suggests people want information gaps and echo chambers.


A fraction of people participate in and encourage cancel culture
