What do you mean? That's Reddit right now

I didn’t want to overstep but.. you’re not wrong.

It has been like this for years already. That place got brain-drained really hard over time.

It's just that now even non-intelligent life will also avoid it.

I feel like that site started to go downhill once they started to implement their A”lGoRiThM.” They started promoting so much negative content to users to keep them hooked - basically my entire feed was taken up by posts of people dying / getting wronged / complaining about how terrible modern society is / etc. And now they just want to be TikTok

i think that algorithm-based content suggestion can be a good thing if implemented correctly, it's just that what's good and what's profitable doesn't always align. sometimes i wonder what the world would look like right now if actually decent algorithms are the norm instead of the absolute cancer that's common right now.

The very fact that you handle the possibility that you might be non-intelligent already makes you considerably smarter than most of the Reddit userbase.

(Don't tell anyone, but I'm a dumbarse too. That's why my avatar is a smoking chimp. I just don't want to interact with other dumbarses, I'd rather leech off smarter people.)

Bots bots everywhere but no good bots in sight

Computer graphics sure has come a long way. Modern GPUs can render that scene in real time and barely break a sweat. Back when Toy Story was made, each frame took between 45 minutes and 30 hours to render!

I like how Imgur thinks it's porn or something and had to warn me and verify that I'm 18 to see....a picture of Buzz Light-year. I know he's the most erotic Toy Story character but still
