>Terrible UX, mostly useless answers (most replies to posts are either poorly sarcastic or not replying to the actual point). Before it wasn't like this. Did the Reddit board voluntarily or involuntarily cause this via technical decisions, or it's just unavoidable to get this degradation after the userbase grows too much?

still used reddit when helping someone look for a car. There are just so many good questions with ranked answers going back YEARS that it's pretty invaluable.
Reddit was fine if a little cringe pre ~2015/2016 but after the Tumblr exodus and it's explosion in popularity during the election it became clear very quickly that the username shifted from weirdos/meme culture people to Tumblr and Twitter users obsessed with communism and trans issues. It really felt like an overnight switch.

The Star Trek sub has to be all bots. It HAS TO. There's no way that many people think newtrek is legitimately good.
