To be clear I don’t think it’ll blow over. The site is definitely worse off than it was before. But I do think it’ll continue instead of collapsing. It will just turn into something completely unrecognizable compared to what it was. Imagine Tumblr or Imgur.

Completely agreed. Reddit won't die, but it also won't be the "front page of the internet" as it was from 2016-2022 or so.

Or Digg, which still exists to this day.

I mostly only use car subreddits like r/cars, but it's mostly the same over there - things haven't changed for the most part.
