I tried searching my posts because it's been so long, don't remember all the reasons. Just talking about the auction part of Sedo. Back in 2015 I said: "And
Sedo's
auctions have become a bit of a joke that I don't even look at them anymore"
I do remember the quality of names being auctioned went down. Same with the Traffic Conference domains being picked. And I do remember something that people were talking about years ago, when Sedo started using the auctions to auction off their own domain names.
Quality wise, just Googled for some, posting some random Great Domains auction:

Look at some of the names they had in the June 22 Great Domains Auction:
flype.com
lnvy.com
oclia.com
seoden.com
epyb.com
markt.bio
fgze.com
putitsimply.com
yaru.org
momproducts.com
From what I've read, this auction is now every 2 months and this is the best they could come up with? Random 4 character .coms and such. Some misspelling .bio For a Great Domains auction, the quality just isn't there. So I guess people just aren't submitting their good names anymore.
