When I got banned from like the 10th subreddit, for topics I agree on but was merely offering a counter-point on some part of it, and still getting banned for merely conversing about them, I knew things were beyond broken and we had to make saidit.

The admins broke digg. But the mods broke reddit.

What amazed me most is how comparatively slow reddit's decay has been compared to digg. Digg had a mass exodus because the whole site realized at once there was a problem after a failed advertiser-friendly redesign. Reddit is compartmentalized in to subreddits, and the decay has been happening on a subreddit-by-subreddit level, rather than the whole site at once.

The admins are complicit in what the mods (many of whom I expect are reddit employees using alts for plausible-deniability purposes) are doing and so they are ruining the site just like they did at digg.
