As I participate in the boycott today and going forward, the biggest thing I’ve found I’m going to miss is the availability of discussion on topics. Obviously Reddit was never a bastion of truth and fact, but being able to find a discussion on a topic I was researching was always nice. For example today I was looking around for a fightstick / looking to see if one would be worth it for my use case, and Reddit was always the first result. What is everyone else unexpectedly missing from Reddit today?
Me too. You can find nearly everything in reddit however obscure it is. Reddit is also a great place for finding answers ever since most websites became seo-optimized ai-generated content, making googling pretty much useless unless you add reddit to the query.
I heard about from other people on reddit that google search is sometimes bogus and focus more on the first page with ads.
