Is it me or Reddit is starting to malfunction and getting worse? More errors, bots, and the gradual decline of the platform itself. Parts of it don’t work on some days, and it’s starting to feel like it’s falling apart.

    Funny, because statistically it seems to be doing fine. Like Google searches for reddit have doubled in 5 years.

    I have no idea how it has developed since they closed the API, except what I read on Lemmy, because I had already closed my account about a year before that, because the quality had deteriorated a lot already back then.

    Lemmy though is nice, it’s a lot like reddit was in the beginning.

      I would guess part of it is Google getting worse and people adding reddit to the query hoping to find answers to PC problems, etc.
