reddit was always a piece of shit that benefitted from the death of traditional forums and the gradual enclosure of the internet
Between Reddit and Discord I don't know who did more damage. Forums were neat, especially because knowledge on it was permanent
Yeah. I worry about how many things are moving into Discord. They are giving so much away for free right now that it stifling competition. Eventually they will need to turn a profit and, with competition reduced, they can get real shitty with it.
