The content has taken a nosedive in the last three months - just take a look at /r/all and you'll see duplicate postings appearing on the feed within the first 100 posts.
The quality of the conversation has plummeted as well. Most comments are one or two sentences, and usually just reaction posts. You can see where the AI bots have taken over - entire comment chains where old reddit tropes are just passed back and forth without any real context, critique, humor, or understanding.
It's no longer a discussion forum. It's a reaction machine, pushing a narrative that has been stripped of anything original that could be disruptive to the status quo... in other words, stripped of the very humanity that made it valuable for ChatGPT in the first place.
That just sounds like the typical askreddit comment section for the past decade, ngl
Yeah, I thought the same thing as well. I've got no doubt it's gotten worse, but the place was never known for originality.
