One of my favorite quotes because it is so hard for me to swallow

> People will choose convenience over quality any day

- CEO of iHeart Media

I am neither a fan of iHeart Media nor that idea, but I think it may be correct. If true, an explanation for Reddit's poor quality is that they made media consumption convenient, and user hostile behavior goes unpunished because there is nowhere else as convenient as reddit.

That's how I and many others felt with Digg over a decade ago. People like to use what they are familiar, but if you push hard enough people will abandon the platform. I guess reddit isn't pushing hard enough yet, although I suppose I would be gone if the old version wasn't available.
