Ditto. I could probably go so far to say that I got addicted to reddit, in the way some users get addicted to Twitter or Instagram. But I was always curious about the dark stories behind closed doors, about power users and shady subreddits. /r/conspiracy was a guilty pleasure of mine. With the latest shitstorm, I made a conscious decision to move on from reddit. Not only because I no longer respected the platform, but also because I felt it was time to move on.
Reddit started much in the same way as all community platforms do, built and maintained by developers. But when your site gets ~500 million pageviews per month, that system is no longer viable.
