Is reddit really that unaffected? Are tech media companies keeping quiet on purpose? Is the Play app giving more artificial visibility to reddit app VS fediverse apps? It feels like all the mainstream centralized social platforms and search engines (Google) are censoring any updates on reddit’s status to maintain a status quo. What are your thoughts?

    I wouldn’t say it’s unaffected. The quality of the content has dropped, less people are posting which makes the feeds look and feel stagnant, and some subs are just gone now. Whether or not that stays the same months or years from now, who can say?

    I don’t think any censorship is happening though. Reddit is still very much an internet subculture thing and fediverse apps even more niche.
