I think this is a good take. What killed reddit was ultimately the proliferation of imgur (and image previews/quick-views for images). There was a dramatic shift from a primarily-text platform to a primarily-image platform, and that's why there's so much meme-heavy content.
When someone talks about a "good" subreddits, they probably mean that it's mostly text-based. /r/fpga and /r/amateurradio are two that come to mind for me.
Overall, I agree with what you're saying though; I no longer have an account and don't miss it at all.
