    I lurk the frontpage occasionally and I’ve already noticed the Reddit atmosphere has gotten … weird.

    Little-known, content-churning subreddits are bubbling to the top because of all the other blackouts and desertions. Fringe viewpoints and wacko opinions that would normally get downvoted to the bottom of a thread are now out in the open because there’s no voice of reason to hold them back.

    And the kind of people that are still on there, acting as if everything is fine (or, God forbid, better(???) than it was before the revolts) … it’s a very strange place now.

        I didn’t make an account for awhile because so many people on Reddit were saying that. Once I finally did, I laughed how easy it was.
