The quality of Reddit has gone down so much. There is still a lot of technical communities there but outside of the really niche stuff and memes it is pretty useless.
I didn't leave cuz of lack of 3rd party apps I left cuz it's only bots anymore. Literally every thread reads exactly the same.
The comments used to be the best part now they're worthless.
This. The lack of third party apps is not why I left, every thread reads the same because of the bots, the comments are worthless because bots are just reiterating the top comment.
Better than stack overflow. All the comments are like "you are stupid"
Reddit and Stack overflow have useful info but ultimately they have been ruined by bad culture.
The whole of stack overflow is now siphoned into every public AI.
It died a couple of years ago They just haven't realized it yet.
