I'm aware, that doesn't mean it's impossible though.

Enshitified is the wrong word imo. Reddit went downhill long before the API changes. Most popular subreddits were filled with karma farming bots spamming the same shit over and over.

By the end I only used reddit for news and niche hobbies.

"Enshittification" is the wrong word for everything. It is both often used incorrectly for what it means, and doesn't even represent what it means well. People just like it because it has the word shit in it. It's a bad term and I can't wait for it to fall into obscurity.
