I don't think anything went wrong. Reddit decided it was time to fully close the garden. And that's that. You can take it or leave it.

The people in the Lemmy verse decided to leave it. Luckily lemmy is here and we're here with Lemmy.

I also noticed a significant decrease in quality of content on Reddit on the subs I used to enjoy. The people who used to post and comment on there just simply don't, and garbage posts get to the top of my front page much more. I consciously decide to use it less (even though my mobile app of choice, Relay, still works for free for now), and it's not even all that hard.
