I think this is the explanation. I have also seen some anti-Reddit coverage on Wired, but it would not be hard for a Wired editor to convince someone to do an “it’s already fine again” article, especially if the writer hadn’t been following the drama. It’s not that hard to cherry-pick facts to make Reddit look like it’s not on fire, even though it kinda is.
