I’ve been seeing a lot of angst and emotion on the Reddit migration, which results in either defeatism or blind optimism. In the end, it probably doesn’t matter, but I wanted to do more fact-based research into the subject.
I put my findings and my analysis into what it would actually take to kill Reddit, based on the deaths of Digg and MySpace. tl;dr it’s a lot less dramatic than most people would think.
Its not corporate owned , its community owned. Its distributed and all the eggs are not in one basket. There are no trackers or analytics or ads.
You can use any instance you like and any apps you like.
