@deathworlder@lemmy.world

However for them, it’s not a big deal as the get the following benefits

All ~~undesirable~~ sane and productive users leave for fidiverse or other reddit alternatives. The remaining users will be ~~tame~~ batshit crazy like the users of FB, Instagram, posting conspiracy theories, lies, flames and other content that gets people riled up, but results in more eyes and more clicks. Which destroys Reddit as we know it, but still generates the income that will appeal to investors in an IPO

FTFY.
