Could be, reddit might go out with a whimper instead of a bang. A war of attrition from thread to thread, sub to sub. Slowly they’ll lose a base of people who don’t take it personally until it hits their favorite sub.
All it takes is one viable alternative, and thats the key.
I’m really hoping this can become that viable alternative. I’m not of fan of social media in general and I miss the old Usenet groups from back in the early 90s before it all became porn, MLM ads and other junk.
It really already is, from the very little I’ve seen so far, this has more of the “early” Reddit days for me feel, it’s not overrun with bots and hidden corporate interests at every post and comment thread.
