    I was on Reddit the other day asking a tax question. Seemed like posting was less. Felt like a ghost town in some places subreddits. Just my impression. Had not been there for maybe 6 months. Place seemed different.

    I wonder if traffic and posting is really down?

      I visit daily for a few of the top stories on r/all and some subreddits like, r/Helldivers, but overall my interest in anything else on that site has soured. It’s not nearly as engaging as it was and the subs that get pushed are just terrible copies of what was great. It’s definitely died before but this is different.

        I liked how the article tried to paint less fractional users from search as a positive. Too me that sounds like less relevance which is negative. Also interesting that Reddit no longer publishes that statistic. Make a me wonder why.

        Edit: Also in line with my experience. Feels like I see less search links and when I see them, I am less likely to click on them.
