I wish we could see up/downvotes like in the past. I think reddit may be artificially boosting some posts into the front page. You can see in the screenshot it has very little upvotes (or older) compared to the other top 4 posts.

I have no evidence other than noticing right after the election, /r/conservative seems to be hitting the front page every day. But I remember before the election, it only hit the front page once in a blue moon or so. Is this just me? Am I the only one noticing this?

    Does it also count if you don’t stalk your ex yourself but do stalk a community dedicated to stalking that exact same ex?

    I like to hear the shit that goes down there (and other sites) for multiple reasons.

    • so i can discuss these ongoing enshitification with friends i know still frequent it and are not on the fediverse.

    • to archive/understand/study the dynamics of enshitificication/collapse/fascist momentum so i may learn how to defend against those and if successful educate others.

    • to deliver dopamine to my brain by feeding the inbuild superiority complex within my human mind. Most of us enjoy seeing our choices redeemed. Shallow and primitive yes but so is arguable 90% of social media.
