Yeah, I know that to be true, but those 4% of old reddit users have probably been the longest and most active reddit users from the days when reddit was more like HN.

I understand why reddit doesn't care to cater to us and instead chase new user growth (metrics & money), but in doing so they've ignored and pushed away a lot of their oldest and most loyal users. I used to donate to reddit, but I'd never do that today because of what it has become and the path it is on.

Maybe they know it and are fine with it. But they are executing terribly on that goal from a technical and usability perspective, and becoming yet another generic social media platform that is worse than the other ones. They're making themselves easier to replace eventually IMO.
