I've never been much of a poster (not even 2 posts/yr for the almost dozen years I've had a reddit habit), but I was a regular commenter in various specific-interest subs.
I am, as a rule, no longer contributing content to Reddit, since they've made it clear they plan to finish their transition from "hosting communities" to "extracting value from users." Frankly, it's not as much of an imposition as I feared, because many of those communities seem to be broadly taking the same attitude.
I'm actively trying to comment heavily here to to try to help establish communities. If I had a little more free time I'd do some posting and/or try to help spin some successor communities for my interests.
