If we're partitioning user engagement from the growth in echo chambers, Reddit's seen continued drop off in community engagement for nearly a decade now. This only marks the bigger nail in the coffin.

Most of the changes will happen behind the scenes as they usually do. Reddit rarely conducts it's extremely underhanded shit out in the open, unless the publicity is going to be unavoidable.
Indeed it is. All I really want is a place where I can intellectually engage with people in good faith, even when people disagree with me; finding it productive, fun and maybe learning a thing or two. Constantly being called a "bigot," "fascist," "asshole," "idiot," "moron," really leaves it wanting.
So it's actually happening...
Except that's not the framing they view the issue in. They see it as preferable to remaining financially kept on the hook and leash of the US, only to have their chain jerked and be threatened whenever they 'act out of line'.
Excellent then! Please expose to us your opinion about the tiananmen events. We are listening. Don’t be shy.
You stupid? My comment history is right there.
Edit: Aw. Don't get butthurt, homie. Lol. Tool.
Oh, look, you have an opinion about tiananmen, what a surprise!
Lol, imagine being criticized for 'having an opinion'. If that doesn't tell me all I need to know about you.
So far? Lemmy is filled with Russian shills. I hope we outnumber them soon.
Ah, the good ole everybody challenging the western propaganda narrative against Russia is a secret Putin shill. I can see Reddit is leaking, already.
Considering what Seymour Hersh's uncovered regarding the Nord Stream Pipeline, I won't put this one past the US, being involved in it. Yes, reputation matters.
And it may be better that it ends up this way. Tech people at least in my experience, tend to be more balanced and level headed discussing topics outside of tech, than people who are single-issue, obsessed with other topics.
