What a fucking disingenuous post. I can go to reddit now, and most rising posts are about things that interest me, because i subscribe to subreddits that match my interests. If you subscribe to Crypto scam subreddits, you can't go here and whine about it. Curate your timeline, just like you need to do here.
I'm so sick off all the FUD about reddit. Yes, the reddit management are basically pure evil, I agree. But reddit itself was barely affected by the exodus.
These are the rising posts on /r/all, not my feed. I've used /r/all/rising for years because it gives more frequent and diverse posts than the same couple dozen lowest common denominator posts that stay on the front page all day.
Yet, you are here contributing to the discussion about it.
True, but only for now. There's a single leading alternative as a result of the exodus, and theoretically you can only enshittify something so much before people start to leave en mass.
The only people I've ever seen use the term "FUD" have been cryptobros lol
Why so much salt at people hating on crypto?
For the record, "FUD" had a long history before crypto was even invented. In fact, in an Internet context I'd say it was much more closely associated with Microsoft nonsense than with crypto nonsense.

Fear, uncertainty, and doubt about reddit though? Weird. I thought we all just didn't like the site?
You are likely to be eaten by a grue.
I didn't write a single positive word about crypto. I even changed "spam" to "scam".
I am salty at people hating on reddit with tailored examples to "prove" how shit it has become. It's basically people trying to tell themselves that things are much better here, and reddit has turned to shit since they left. My guess is that they actually think the content here is kinda sparse, so they need to keep telling themselves they did the right thing.
