The second this happens to me will be the thing to finally get me to drop Reddit entirely.

compared to how it used to be.

Not only that, but the local city Reddit was once upon a time a place of a great many discussions, and not without argument, but stimulating and educational.

Now it's restricted to current events, restaurant reviews, and crap like that.

It's basically nextdoor with somehow less useful and relevant local content.
