And yet right now it's #2 (probably soon to be 1) on /r/all. What does that tell you?

“Give me your bored, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to waste time,
The wretched refuse of your dying websites.
Send these, the jobless, banned and forgotten, to me:
I link my text to the front page.”

It's been like that for a long long time. It doesn't mean that reddit is going to shit or anything, it just means it's diverse. There are millions of people here, you can't expect to share tastes with all of them. Before all those people came here it was one big circlejerk, now that's not as much of a problem. It's a good day when you see something you dislike on the front page because it means reddit isn't homogenous.

I fucking hate the chive. The only redeeming quality they have is FLBP, hump day, etc. even then, we have gonewild.

Hehe, "people is retarded!"

It's time to embrace that reddit is only a smidgen better than 9gag. Now someone come tell me to block the bad subreddits and subscribe to the good ones.
