Honestly, this whole situation has made me realise how much Reddit has contributed to my brain rot and poor mental health for the past 7 years. I'm not blaming it all on Reddit, because of course there's got to be a deeper root to it. But god damn does this mental decline align perfectly with my usage of that damn app. I feel like an addict 😅

It's ridiculous. There are zero standards for moderation on that platform.
Yes! And the popularity of shadow-banning so there is zero accountability. It's irritating how unregulated the Reddit moderators are, but I guess you can't complain when it's all volunteers. I do somewhat wish they all get replaced by paid employees - then at least users won't be met with rudeness or unjustified decisions as much.
And I'm perfectly aware Lemmy and other social media apps would similarly contribute. But like I say, I'm an addict and need to get more willpower lmao
