Reddit slowly became filled with hatelocked
I have been on reddit for just about 12 years now. Something I've noticed over time is just how hateful the place has become. A complete outrage machine. Every single sub became filled with it. I've filtered so many subreddits over the last few years, it's insane. I don't know enough about this place to be sure, but I do hope it doesn't become the same type of echo chamber of anger.

I've been on Reddit going on 15 years now and it's absolutely nothing like what was a decade ago. This is what happens when millions of people invade a site, mods become control freaks and the executives don't care about anything other than dollar signs.
Yeah, I honestly missed all those "novelty" accounts that had gimmicks to the posts that were actually enjoyable. Spotting specific users in the comments and all that. Nowadays all the ones you spot in the comments are "oh that's a bot".
At first, the bots were kind of cute but then they began overrunning the whole site.
