For the most part, the people still commenting on big subs or r/all during the protests are people who are:

  1. Too addicted to content to ignore reddit for a few days.
  2. Not smart enough to find an alternative source of content.

These aren't the brightest minds on the internet. Like you said - the decline in quantity has been minor, but quality has gone off a cliff.
