Reddit exists due to its community of users and they are Reddit’s fundamental problem, not APIs or third-party apps or permissions but rather a community so toxic and disconnected from reality that it is unbearable for ordinary people to participate in.
Nothing fixes Reddit. They could rebuild on Nostr and it wouldn’t make an iota of difference because the social layer would remain as unbearable as it is now.
Not sure where you see this Reddit community. For me, it is a million communities. Each sub is a cosmos of memes and rules and acceptable styles.
All of the major subs have been subsumed in to the borg ideology. Niche subs get overrun, brigading is accepted against subs which admins don’t like, even subs that have decent communities get overrules by censorious central planners who tolerate only a tiny Overton window on the entire site.
