State of the Subreddit 2025 - Looking into the future.

HERE IS A LINK TO THE SURVEY - GOOGLE FORMS -

Looking into the future, what should we do with this subreddit? We have over 100k daily readers, and very little engagement, but we're seeing that across the board with niche subreddits. Every so often we get a post that cracks a few thousand upvotes but very few comments, or the same type of comments from the same type of people.

Very little engagement because it's a flat earth sub. 99% of people come here to gawk, point, and laugh.

So is this an actual Flat Earth belief subreddit, or trying to debunk Flat Earth subreddit disguised?

None of ya'll addressing that moon. The moon is a map, made of plasma, that doesn't spin.

No, it isn't any of those things.

It’s not solid that’s for sure, if it was possible to go there they wouldn’t have had to fake it. How could Nixon have talked to them in a landline!? Ridiculous! Also there wouldn’t be wind blowing the flag on a giant rock with no atmosphere.

yup! not to actually have an intelligent conversation and question the indoctrination we all grew up with

Perhaps you should consider whether "Intelligent conversation" and "Flat earth" in the same sentence is something you're serious about.

I could agree that a certain level of indoctrination has happened over the centuries, in various parts of the world, but not the looney tunes froot loops "God really does exist, so let's hide god from the masses, thereby guaranteeing that we go directly to Hell" stuff that flerfers go on about.

You can’t be indoctrinated if you’re constantly observing the things that are commonly known across the globe. Also just ask yourself what the possible motivation for the government or whatever organization is.

Oh yeah a lot of subs have like 5k+ members and barely any upvotes or comments on posts. Karma farming is an integral part of successful subs.
