They're not dying at all. They're the largest discussion site, period. 10s if not hundreds of millions of users. Huge targeted subs, larger than anything Facebook offers, ideal for targeting people with promotions, getting knowledgeable advice and more. They're a fucking ruthless monopoly and should be split up. They've been absolutely corrupted by absolute power

It doesn't feel that way. Go into any sub and count the number of commenters in that sub. It's a small fraction of who's viewing it. All social media is like this. Factor in bots, Feds and shills and it gets worse.

Haha, you really think hundreds of millions are people are looking at these posts but only 50 people comment? It's fake.

They have something like a post every couple of seconds, and many people only post a couple of times a year so the figures more or less work out. Compare that with Saidit where you're lucky to get one post an hour
