SimilarWeb has just released traffic estimates for June. According to these estimates, Reddit’s traffic has seen a 3.36% month-over-month decrease.
For comparison, here’s how traffic has changed for other popular social networking websites:
- Discord.com: +0.51%
- Twitter.com: -1.65%
- Instagram.com: -1.35%
- Facebook.com: -3.18%
- TikTok.com: +0.77%
- Pinterest.com: -2.27%

For real though, let’s stop talking about reddit here.
I’ll give them the benefit of a doubt and say they still aren’t used to how magazines/communities work here and didn’t notice they were commenting within a community dedicated to the very thing they don’t wish to see.
It’s a very big benefit I’ll grant you, but I’ll give it to them all the same.
No, I agree with you on this also. I am not the original commenter here, but I was just scrolling through “all” and I do agree that it’s a little annoying to see ~90% of the page filled with posts about reddit. But I’m also someone willing to participate in discussions about reddit still, at least a little, so I imagine it’s way more annoying to those who just want to forget about it.
I didn’t even notice what community or instance this post was in when I opened it to participate in lol
Not sure there’s really a good solution though, and comments/posts from people complaining about everything being about reddit is also adding to the total number of things about reddit. I assume the constant reddit focus will fade out over time as other communities slowly build up more activity.
