The site got too big and the mods did literally fuck-all to help us manage the growth.

Once upon a time, Reddit was like this - it had no subreddits. It was just one big front page.

They ended up making subreddits because the traffic volume was too large and the front page was just clickbait garbage.

Large userbase = large population of retards, and retards are low-information, low-intelligence, low-critical-thinking mongoloids who are driven like a fart in a hurricane to the stupidest, most eye-catching thing.
