The world is better off without Reddit and similar sources of empty dopamine. There’s a big difference between doing well and feeling good. Someday humanity will look back on the early users of the internet as lives lost to addiction while the world literally burned around them.

I agree that Reddit's deteriorating quality equates it more to empty dopamine.

High quality content and discussion that expands one's knowledge however is certainly not empty. Reddit has unfortunately failed in that regards, and seems to have no interest in fixing it.
