I have been using Reddit for the last couple of years. It feels like it got worse ever since u/spez banned 3rd party clients which requires me to use revanced reddit now. Now the latest saga involves subreddits now banning you for participating in other subreddit they think are bad. This is just pure censorship at this point. And you want to know the best part Reddit has done NOTHING to stop this issue.

    Yup if you take a look at new posts on any big sub reddit its either bots karma farming or influencers shilling. It’s just too hard for new people to onboard on sharing as:

    • min karma or account requirement
    • absurd 50 rules that trigger auto mod
    • shadow banning so new users have 0 response and get demotivated instantly

    So aside from smaller subreddits it’s just trolls and bots talking between each other.
