I think it’s possible. Tinker with the features, do some mockups, explore everything, “this is a great app, now if I can just get everything rolled over to this…” and then you don’t because it takes a moment of effort and then you forget.

Happens to me all the time. You can think an app is great, but haven’t had a chance to fully use it. Like I’m a huge fan of ClickUp for keeping things on track, but I also have adhd which means I end up forgetting to use it. Great app, crappy brain.

Are they back in decent form at all? Me and my partner stopped watching a long time ago due to the downward spiral of their content quality and editing. It just became more of “how many times can we roll our eyes over the course of a video” than anything else.

Which sucks because our mutual enjoyment of them (among other things) was one of the things that brought us together.

(For reference, I started watching around 2012, her around 2016, and we stopped watching somewhere in 2019)

I just checked it out because of this post, and I’m not really sold. It just seems… off? to me. Like the whole comments right next to the post thing and what not just made it more of a distraction than anything. I mean, it could be my adhd preventing me from focusing, but I just could feel myself becoming overwhelmed within the 5-10 minutes I was looking through it. I feel that lemmy/kbin is definitely more Reddit-like, and personally, less overwhelming. Good concept, maybe not-so-good execution for some people.

And not just minor NSFW subs, but some of the biggest ones that probably drove a lot of revenue for content creators outside of Reddit. They literally are killing off revenue streams in protest. That’s a big thing that people who are affected by it will remember.

Yea, similar to Tumblr, they fell hard and now people use it dramatically less than before their NSFW decision to the point that now that they’ve allowed that content again no one really cares. Tumblr will always be seen as “the website that died after banning NSFW content.”

It’s quite possible Reddit will be seen as “the website that died because they backstabbed third party developers.”
