Media is being censored across the world. Reddit used to be a platform where one could post/discuss anything anonymously. Now it's becoming like Instagram and Facebook.

It's because of advertising money. Most of the censorship you see on the internet is because of advertising money. Advertising companies are afraid of being affiliated with offensive content, and in turn you have sites also taking preemptive measures to attract those advertising companies – especially if they want to expand.
As far as Reddit goes, there's a ton that goes on behind the scenes. It's a propaganda machine. And even if they say something about those subreddits not aligning with their ethics and values, what they really mean is money.
It's because "normies/sheep/whatever else you call non-nerds" weren't invested into it.I wish the internet went back to how it was in the 2000s. Maybe I am just looking back with rose tinted glasses but the internet seemed much more fun and chill and less censored back then. Now all people do is argue over dumb shit and push ads.

Reddit has been completely been taken over by control freaks who are afraid of triggering anyone.Media is being censored across the world. Reddit used to be a platform where one could post/discuss anything anonymously. Now it's becoming like Instagram and Facebook.
You'd make an excellent point if we were talking about Youtube but Reddit? Nah, I just think Reddit has been taken over by a bunch of control freaks and cowards.It's because of advertising money.

I feel this picture explains it best to what happened to the internet. I was around back then and remember a different place, if you take something like 4chan for example you'll know that for the most part it was really never good but after so many of the so called normies heard about it on social media like twitter and facebook and memes they saw it as the new way to be edgy and cool.
The best way to keep a community on the internet strong and "fun and chill" like you remember it is to increase the difficulty of access as much as possible without compromising too many others. Most of the people who ruined the internet for everyone are just people that are unable to even google their issues, I don't consider myself tech savy in the absolute slightest but I can still research and put effort into what I do and accomplish things online. You put that barrier of work that requires some level of intellect to do and you'll have yourself a good community that brings content rather than just 99% shitposting because shit posters dont bring content and dont want to do work so they wont bother even attempting to join the community, which is what most computers requires at least some level of effort back in the 90's and early 2000's.

I thought it was still there b
thats a good pointI thought it was still there but all well. I knew it wasn't go to last though. Most of the content comes from gore sites anyway like YNC, Bestgore, Liveleak, goregrish, deathaddict, etc.
Personally, I dont find the lack of this content regrettable. Am not a fan of gore, or watching people suffer.
Its very different from SS, where people come together as a community and help each other
