Gallowboob basically destroyed the site by popularizing “safe” feel-good subreddits like r/nextfuckinglevel. Then of course, the tumblr diaspora fiasco.
It’s textbook enshittification. Start with a great but unprofitable idea that attracts users, monopolize the market, then debase the service to extract cash from the cornered userbase. We have to show them that we aren’t going to put up with it. Any enshittified service should be immediately boycotted.
It rains bullets in the United States.
