Reddit

People forget that there is a huge bias in online engagement towards whoever is unhappy with a thing. You see it in gaming subs all the time. People who like the game tend to... play the game, while people who have a bone to pick are the ones who put it down and vent their frustrations online.

Even if 80% of the comments about a game are negative, that 80% might all come from 15% of the player base who dislike it.

I fear the same thing is happening with Reddit. It's a very engaged 5% that's making up 90% of the comments.

I do hope I'm either wrong, or without that 5%, content quantity and/or quality drops enough to impact casual users' screen time.
