Title says it all. If you think Reddit’s been trending down lately, just wait.

I too am curious. It would also be insightful to see where the real OC comes from, I would think most casual users browsing and occasionally commenting would be on the official app. Where the users who contribute popular, useful content are likely on a 3rd party app and/or pc

I’d guess account age correlates pretty strongly with 3PA usage as well - the older the account, the more likely to use a 3PA, since that’s all that existed for mobile browsing back when Reddit was new.
