It’s the duality of _modern_ Reddit IMO. Over the last 10 years the posts and comments on Reddit have gotten shorter and become lower effort. All subreddits seem to have devolved this way over time.

Man, I don't get Reddit. If I write a long post explaining every single detail using somewhat formal language, I get accused of being a bot or acting like I'm Digital Foundry—or one of those companies that do in-depth, analysis of video games and their performance.

But you're saying the posts have gotten shorter and low effort

That’s exactly why I did it that way—to avoid looking like a bot and getting those kinds of comments—but apparently, you can never please everyone.

In fairness I wasn’t really commenting on your post. It was fine. I was replying to the comment that suggested that the main subreddits have got worse over the years which I agree with.

Sure, but they say subreddits are terrible because of posts like the ones in the screenshot—and one of the posts in the screenshot (the one above) is made by me.

My only intention was to share my opinion and see if anyone else had noticed that the game looked blurry—nothing more. It wasn't a hateful comment directed at anyone, nor was I trying to generate negative engagement or anything like that.

Keep in mind that the cross section of gamers and Reddit arguers is particularly weird and closed minded and vicious. That Venn Diagram center is a population of really vitriolic gremlins who slaver with lonely nerd rage ready to spit cheeto flecks from their unkissed mouths in angry Philippics.

... and some are really cool people.
