A mass user protest six months ago over technical tweaks had big downstream effects, and now the ‘front page of the internet’ is changed for ever
While traffic has not changed substantially, many users report the quality of content and the kinds of posts that are surfaced on user homepages now seem different.
This was on the front page a day or 2 ago, right near the top:

Technical tweaks my ass…it was nothing more then pure greed.
Honestly, I think spez was offended last spring when he realized that every. Single. AI had included most of rexxit’s content in their training data - and that rexxit had paid the infrastructure and bandwidth costs for that to happen. And that he was angry about that, and afraid that he’d once again missed the boat, just like he did with rexxit crypto and rexxit NFTs. He really is an astoundingly incompetent CEO.
