I’m going to miss AITA. Even if someone makes it a community, it will take a long time to populate.

    that’s how I felt about all the /r/entitled_X subs, since so many of those were so unbelievably one-sided that most of them felt made up for rage.

      It starts getting that way with any page that gets popular. Regular front-page subs become targets for clout chasers… even in the comments - with so many fake names. Reddit’s been dead - Spez only defiled a corpse.

        I also agree the front page subs were mostly filled with shallow fiction, but there was definitely good stuff going for Reddit before Spez f’d it up. I’d say the magic was in the small and niche hobby/fandom subs, the communities in a lot of them were truly unique and vibrant.
