When compared to ~5-10 years ago, I find Reddit comments and posts to be more difficult to read.
I am curious as to why this is. I suspect this could be because of bot posts, but am not sure.

What is really telling is if you change location using VPN you’ll find that if it’s U.S. it’s posts about being 35yo but if you swap to India it’s teenager. Some of the “hot” posts that show up are like a AskReddit post but it’s clearly written by a 30yo for millennials. Also don’t try to change location using Reddits own sorting filter as it literally just ignores what you put there unless a specifically flagged post for that region. The only location their algo cares about is your IP.
