I created an account here after the API nonsense. Stayed on reddit for a couple years, but the bot problem there got worse, and worse. I was very vocal about why reddit chose to turn a blind eye to the bot problem. My account of 12 years kept catching bans for the mildest of takes. Feels like they were trying to get rid of me. Finally caught a perm ban for ridiculous reasons in 2024, made an alt account that got caught for ban evasion a year later. Gave up because they're very hawkish about keeping humans off the platform, but they welcome bots and alt right shitheads with open arms.
