I'm getting the same vibes. I was in middle school when I signed up for reddit 11 years ago, and I still remember an askreddit thread that was, "Reddit, what do you look like?" and the comments were just selfies. It felt so tight knit, even when it was eclipsing a million subs at that point. These days that kind of community is only found in the most niche of niche subreddits.

I'll give it until the end of June. By that point, anyone who was going to leave reddit will have left, and new users will come more organically. At that point, the rexxitors will do what redditors do best, which is gatekeep.
Angry, pointess debates are so fun lol. They're my guitly pleasure
Same here - I was never an active poster, but I love commenting! Must have something to do with our personalities.
Welcome, hyperslob!
Same here. I've been using old.reddit with RES and apollo for so long that I forgot reddit even had ads until I tried the official app.
r/cfb. That sub is so fun during the college football season, even in the off-season it's an entertaining place. It will be sorely missed.
That sub started out fun and with pretty believable stories as well. Nowadays people write novels and the comments take everything so extreme and serious.
I'm the same. My account is 11 years old. I created it when I was 14 - I'm 25 now. I like the ability to read through comments that my teenage self wrote :-)
