> I watched my own partner do it. She doesnt like the app or care for reddit at al

But did she leave a review? I dont mean to diminish your anecdote; I was strictly referring to public stats. Millions of people download and eventually ignore the app, but clearly enough are downloading it and having positive feelings about it. Thats how we got to this situation.

> has abandoned its once core userbase in favour of cheap eyeballs

I agree. It really sucks, but it is happening.

Who knows how many of those reviews are fake or low effort attempts to make the "leave a review" prompt stop appearing
