I ask this here because look at the power they have given people – look at this sub and others that have made national news.
Twitter and reddit have brought people together which poses a threat to those at the top. How do they fix that? Break the systems bringing people together.
I don’t use twitter. Reddit is the only social platform I use anymore. Twitter looks like it’s becoming a heavily right leaning organization, catering to those on the right – the side that props up those at the top.
Reddit seems to lean left, for the most part. With the recent news regarding the API fees, it feels like reddit is going the way of twitter. Potentially pushing a large number of users away.
What is an attempt to rebalance or reduce active communities that threaten those at the top?
This is all speculation, of course.
