Relative to what it was. I was on reddit at the beginning, and it was much higher quality than the default, now. It's like the eternal September all over again.

But, this is a natural progression. Not sure what to do about it except to form exclusive communities. While the fact that reddit has hit the mainstream means that there are some interesting AMAs and experiences to be discovered, it also means that reddit got dumb -- because the main-stream is dumb.
