I really don't think it's the communities on Reddit that are the problem. I mean, yes, some communities there are problematic, but way more are great.
The problem is the site owners. They are growing increasingly user hostile.

But agreed the websites updates are horrible in every single way. I can't think of one new feature that did not make things worse, the only way I can use Reddit is adding the old. Subdomain manually every time

I absolutely detest that, specially since they have put a giant loginwall in the mobile version of the new reddit which basically forces me to use the old.reddit. These practices are basically what I expect from a shady website, not one of the most popular ones. Reddit is really detestable and I wish we could do something to stop it from acquiring users.
