The grand majority of reddit users have more in common with tictok users than forum users. The lowest common denominator is the biggest user base.
They doom scroll and satisfy their addiction, many are kids, they really don't really care about information manipulation, quality content, discussion quality....etc
So they will stay, and the niche groups, those that care and contribute in quality ways, tend to be pushed out.
I think it sure is interesting that data vampires exist but that they also don't care about the quality of their food.
I bet there are hundreds or maybe thousands of these data vampires on here right now scrolling and searching for the text and image based content they use to sustain themselves.
They live amongst us.
edit: this is not sarcastic, but playful
They don't know what good food tastes like, so they are content.
