I realize it won’t be like this forever, but while scrolling Lemmy I eventually come to a point when I start to see a lot of old posts and it’s a perfect signal that I’ve done more than enough scrolling for the day

you are on to something. after my last acc was shadowbanned for a comment from a mod removal, not even major policy. i started visiting the shadowban subs, thats the only place you can comment and people respond. i noticed almost everyone there has been shadowbanned for no apparent reason, soon after account creation, a simple comment that caught a filter?
it seems like they are culling the reddit population to a small managable group, so they can probably sell it off, also because Musk is responsible for some of the major purges this year, since he has complained to SPEZ on quite a few occasions.
Is that a thing? Why would they want a smaller user group to sell it? We are talking about Spez, so who tf knows, but that seems really dumb.
I thought it would be because everyone who made content left, kind of like how X is.
they dont want to sell a loud left leaning userbase, the more neutral or right leaning the better
Maybe you’re right, they did seem to be heading that direction a few years ago when I left.
