Still shit, it felt like I was on facebook. I scrolled for 53 seconds before I gave up.

    The subreddit I visit the most is r/nba. With it being the off-season, it’s really easy for me to use Reddit less and less every day. Those twats left a bad taste in my mouth anyways. They all protested the mods after not participating in the blackout survey and then proceeded to call the mods names for 2 days and then business back to normal.

    Having nowhere to discuss the league championships during the blackout, they started their own sub r/nbatalk. A handful will never go back, but we will see how long that lasts. The majority of r/nba are shitposters anyways.

      r/NBA was a mess at the best of times but at least it didn’t have that idiotic Twitter requirement that r/NFL does for news posts.

      That said, I hope Lemmy sports communities start becoming popular. I don’t need every post to have 10,000 comments but a solid discussion would go a long way towards keeping me off Reddit for good.

      Time to try to helk the NBA one here thrive. I used /r/NBA so much too. Kind of miss it but there’s some activity on Lemmy too.

      I usually just lurk but I will try to be more active.

    Thank you for your sacrifice.

    …and yes, I can confirm, the dumpster fire is still burning. I just checked the BotW sub and the entire front page is filled with lazy ass shitposts about elephants that contribute nothing of value to any discussion. And of course posts complaining about the lazy ass shitposts. And at least two super obvious karma farming bots reposting stuff from the “top of all time” section.

    RIP reddit. It was fun while it lasted.

      Same. I check with narwhal and old.reddit, and scroll for a bit but everything is just sorta tepid. It’s like the “filler” subs are now all there is
